Aussie great Newcombe has skin cancer surgery

Tennis Betting Lines

05/07/2010 - Sydney, Australia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former world No. 1 John Newcombe underwent surgery to have a cancerous growth removed from the right side of his nose.

"It's a cancerous growth so he (the doctor) had to cut...and finished up having 64 stitches," Newcombe said of the procedure.

The 65-year-old Australian tennis legend had the growth removed after it was discovered the cancer had spread under the skin.

The Sydney native Newcombe is a seven-time major champion and three-time Grand Slam runner-up and ascended to No. 1 in 1974. He won 26 major titles overall, including doubles and mixed doubles Grand Slam wins.

Newcombe was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 1986.
