Former tennis star Jennifer Capriati is recovering from an accidental overdose of prescribed medication.



Spokeswoman Lacey Wickline says the 34-year-old Capriati was in stable condition and expected to make a full recovery.



Capriati was once ranked Number one in a career sidetracked by personal troubles.



Wickline declined to identify the medication.



Capriati was rushed to a South Florida hospital early Sunday morning, but Wickline did not say how Capriati was found or who called emergency services.



At Wimbledon, Venus and Serena Williams paused after wins yesterday to extend their concern.
