Martina Navratilova 'injured in climb'

Martina Navratilova has been forced to abort her climb up Mt Kilimanjaro after suffering an injury on her way to the summit.

The tennis player was brought to a Kenyan hospital after developing high altitude pulmonary oedema, a potentially deadly condition, reports People.


She was part of a group of 27 individuals climbing to raise money for the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation charity.

"I'm disappointed not to be able to complete this amazing journey," Navratilova said in a statement.

"It was something that I have wanted to do for so long, but it was not to be. I am so pleased that we got it going and I will be watching and waiting for news from the climb when they reach the summit [on Saturday]."
