SEVEN-TIME grand slam champion Mats Wilander was rushed to hospital in Melbourne after suffering a fall in his apartment at the weekend.
"He had an accident in his apartment and as a consequence of that he was taken to hospital," a producer from sports broadcaster Eurosport said yesterday.
Eurosport was to have employed Wilander as a television analyst at the Australian Open.
"He had a (problem) with his kidney, but it's becoming fine," he said.
A Facebook page for his company Wilander on Wheels said the fall had caused internal bleeding.
"The bleeding has ceased as of 7am (0800 GMT) this morning. He will be out of commission for a while," it said.
The 47-year-old Swede won three Australian Opens among his seven singles grand slam titles.
