Former British tennis player Anne Keothavong has offered her support to ex-teammate Elena Baltacha, who has been diagnosed with cancer of the liver.
The 30-year-old, who retired from tennis last November, announced the news via the LTA website this afternoon.
Keothavong, who retired in July last year, tweeted: "She's one of the people I most admire for her courage and determination. You'll fight through this @ElenaBaltacha xxx."
Judy Murray has also given a message of support for the athlete.
