All-time tennis champion Serena Williams is sharing details about a recent health scare.

On Tuesday, the former professional tennis player took to TikTok and revealed that she had a benign cyst the size of a “small grapefruit” removed from her neck.

In the caption of the post, she wrote that she found the lump in May and went to see her doctor, who ordered an MRI test.

Once it came back, the test showed Serena Williams had a branchial cyst.

Williams added that the cyst was found in May and showed a video of herself in a hospital bed.

“They said I don’t need to get it removed if I don’t want,” Williams wrote. “So I did not get it, but it kept growing. I decided to get more test and 3 test and one biopsy later everything is still negative but doctors advised I get it removed asap because it was the size of a small grapefruit and it could get infected or worse leak.”

“So this is me removing it,” Serena Williams captioned the video, which showed clips of her in the hospital after surgery. “I am feeling so grateful and fortunate everything worked out, and most of all, I’m healthy.”

In another social media post, Williams said she is “still recovering, but getting better. Health always comes first.”

Fans jumped in her comments and sent her prayers and well wishes:

Serena Williams Had a Dynamic Career In Tennis

Serena Williams announced her retirement from tennis in 2022. She cited her desire to expand her family as a reason for her decision.

She has 23 grand slam titles to her name, and together with sister Venus, she dominated a sport that was once deemed to belong to other races.

Williams also has 14 more doubles titles and was ranked No. 1 in the WTA rankings for 319 weeks, won four Olympic gold medals, and was voted Associated Press Athlete of the Year five times.

A photo of a female hockey fan who was busting out of her jeans at a Leafs-Devils game in early 2024 has gone viral online again.

Said supporter was pictured in the stands wearing a Devils Jack Hughes jersey, but that was probably the least interesting thing about her as a lower body part caused her to trend on X.

A new set of photos of her showing her assets off has popped up online ahead of the weekend, with one of the accounts posting asking, “Are you a hockey fan?”
