Bjorn Borg discusses cocaine, overdoses and quitting tennis in his 20s in a memoir and AP interview

NEW YORK: Bjorn Borg starts his new memoir, “Heartbeats,” with a story about being rushed to a Dutch hospital in the 1990s after overdosing on “alcohol, drugs, pills — my preferred ways of self-medication,” and the Swedish tennis great closes it by revealing that he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. “It’s good,” Borg, 69, said in a recent video interview with The Associated Press from his home in Stockholm, “to have a good beginning and a good ending.” In between, the 292-page book, which will be released in the US by Diversion Books on Sept.
