**Björn Borg’s Son, Leo, Speaks Out About Father’s Drug Struggles and Cancer Diagnosis**
**Stockholm, Sweden** – Tennis legend Björn Borg’s son, Leo Borg, has expressed his pride and support for his father following the release of Björn’s revealing autobiography. The book details Björn Borg’s past struggles with drug abuse, specifically cocaine, and a cancer diagnosis, something the elder Borg had kept private for years.
“I am very proud of him,” Leo Borg, 22, told SVT, acknowledging the difficulty his father faced in sharing such personal and painful experiences. “It’s not easy to write about everything; it has been inside him for a very long time. So, I’m proud that he’s getting it out and wants to tell his story.”
The younger Borg also expressed empathy for his father’s past struggles, saying, “It’s heartbreaking. No one should have to feel that bad. He has been strong to be able to get out of those periods.”
Leo Borg, currently ranked 641st in the world, is preparing to compete in the Nordic Open in Stockholm. He is scheduled to face Austrian player Sebastian Ofner, ranked 138th, at the Kungliga Tennishallen on Monday.
