Serena Williams rushed into surgery to treat a blood clot in her lungs...
From ESPN
The foot injury that has kept Serena Williams from playing for the past eight months appears to be the least of her worries.
Reports surfaced Wednesday morning that Williams underwent emergency treatment Monday in a Los Angeles hospital after doctors found a blood clot in her lungs. Williams reportedly suffered from a pulmonary embolism last week and, in the wake of that, doctors treated her for a hematoma.
"Tough day …" Serena tweeted Tuesday around 11 p.m., California time.
That would seem to be a massive understatement. While her condition is said to be non-life-threatening, spokesperson Nicole Chabot acknowledged she was being monitored at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
