      She's a warning to so many. She hasn't completed her chemo, she's having it again. Hasn't helped her at all. It will keep coming back. Treatment is worse than the disease.

    I met Chris Evert many decades ago and was in awe of her on and off the court-this story just reinforces that feeling and I wish her a full remission and long life 💜💜💜So sorry for the loss of her sister but hapoy the geneticist gave her this life-saving information.

    I watched the full story on HBO and they really did a great job with it. Chris didn't have to do any of this. She could have very easily slipped into the background and dealt with this privately. I love that she's still putting herself out there and trying to raise awareness about the disease. And I respect that she credits Jeannie for saving her life.

      Yes,big time. You can get a more better compliment than someone telling you or others that another person is why you are still living. Don't think for one minute that is a given. I know that personally. It's 2 women I know if that list their lives because there pride didn't allow me to help them. And I am a man. No intimacy involved with either of them. They died at the ages of 72 & 43 if different cancer's. I was giving money and knew the medical people that were curing then.But it was no no no i can't let anyone get credit for saving my life. The irony is that nobody was and they list their lives do this foolish decision.

It was only after the diagnosis that we found that she had the BRCA1 mutation. She passed away in September 2020. Fortunately, my daughters were tested for the mutation and neither has it.

    Chrissie had a 1272-103 (92%) match record for her career.
    She made it to the quarter-finals in 54 of the 56 grand slam tournaments in which she played (96%).
    She made it to the semi-finals in 52 of the 56 (93%).

    No other player had that amazing level of consistent greatness over such an extended period of time.
    Just think about that... FIFTY-TWO times out of 56 - into the semis.
    She also dominated on one surface probably more so than any other player.
    She won 125 consecutive clay-court matches from August 1973 to May 1979.
    That was a run of almost six years.
    During that streak, she played 258 sets - and went to a third set in just 8 of the 125 matches.
    71 of the 258 sets were 6-0... which means that 28% during that streak she had sets that were 6-0.
    She did not lose a single set on clay in FOUR different years: 1973, 1976, 1977 & 1978.
    Has any other player had a three-year run in which they didn't lose a single match on their best surface??
    Let alone not losing a single set!
    Rafa is magnificent on clay... but even he would have to admit how amazing the above numbers are.
    All the above being said, they're just numbers, I happened to follow and enjoy Chrissie's career when I was a teenager. It all started with me watching her because she was so cute and so good at her sport. But I also admired how she presented herself during interviews and now in her post-career. She "ALWAYS" had a sense of class and dignity that I hope we all can admire in an athlete and more importantly, as a human being.
    I lost my dear wife to cancer nearly 20 years ago, so I know it's so challenging to fight a disease that can be devastatingly overpowering as Chrissie was on clay. So, I send happy, healing thoughts her way, knowing she'll fight with that determination to win. God bless you Chrissie and much good health in your future years ....

    Well, I will say that despite her comment that you can control tennis but you can’t control cancer, she did control it. She became proactive and caught it early. She probably doesn’t feel in control, but she did the right thing. It’s unfortunate that it was her sister‘s death that pointed her in that direction, but she took charge.

    To be reminded time and again of her sister's passing to the same cancer tho not caught in time.
    It's the ultimate gift a sister can pass along to another.
    Even tho Chris's docs say she is 90% cancer free, she will still need to keep on top her condition to void out the remaining 10%.
