# Rugby: England’s most capped Test player, Ben Youngs, hopes to be fit when the new Premiership season kicks off in September. This follows his revelation of undergoing heart surgery after collapsing during training for Leicester Tigers. The 34-year-old scrumhalf says he had similar episodes earlier, but was only now diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat. Youngs says he’s on the mend following the operation, which has a 90-percent success rate. The veteran of 127 Tests retired from international rugby after last year’s World Cup.
