The women's world No. 2 is recovering after a health scare.

Nelly Korda announced Sunday afternoon that she was currently at home and receiving treatment after she was diagnosed with a blood clot in one of her arms.

Korda said she was doing a morning workout on Friday when her arm "started to feel like it was swelling." After consulting with her doctor, Korda went to the emergency room in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, where she was for a sponsor obligation that included a photoshoot and commercial appearance.

"I will communicate my status as and when there is more information," Korda said.
