What Killed Kristijan Schneider: Details Revealed
Kristijan Schneider, a tennis coach, died at the age of 41 after a long fight with cancer. The unfortunate news was confirmed by the Croatian Tennis Association.
He was diagnosed with colon cancer two years ago, at the peak of his career with Born Orig. After one of the most difficult procedures in medical history, doctors were able to remove the entire affected area, and chemotherapy was not required.
Doctors also anticipated a long and painful recovery, but as a warrior, he saw that the only way to cure it was to take action. His passion for tennis is well-known, and all he wanted to do was return to the court.

Kristijan was back in action six months later, much to everyone’s surprise. He was hospitalized in Melbourne after having acute abdominal pain during the Australian Open.
He was diagnosed with stomach cancer when he returned to Croatia, and he underwent two surgeries. Because removing it was not an option this time, chemotherapy was utilized to treat it. Unfortunately, he was unsuccessful this time.
After his tragic death was reported, many memorial letters poured in, and it’s strange to see such a young spirit pass away so soon.
