TL;DR

Tennis great Chris Evert, 71, announced that her ovarian cancer has returned for a third time after recent CT and PET scans. She has already undergone surgery and will begin chemotherapy in the coming weeks, stepping back from ESPN Wimbledon coverage to focus on treatment. Evert previously battled ovarian cancer in 2021 and 2023 and beat it both times; her news comes just as Netflix releases a documentary about her and Martina Navratilova, Chris & Martina: The Final Set.
