Reports about Björn Borg’s death in May 2024 appear to be unsubstantiated and part of a celebrity death hoax. Several sources initially circulated news of the legendary tennis player’s passing following an alleged tragic incident, which understandably shocked fans and the sports community (factsoccer). However, these reports have been confirmed as false.
