Alan Sugar underwent urgent heart surgery while vacationing in Florida last month, it has emerged.

Lord Sugar, 69, was fitted with a stent to improve blood flow to the heart after tests showed that one of his arteries had narrowed. 

A spokesperson reported that he responded well to the surgery. “He was on the mend within a day and cleared to resume exercise after a week. He's in perfect medical health and plays tennis and rides his bike for 40 miles regularly,” the spokesperson said.

The multi-millionaire businessman and host of The Apprentice is already back on his feet. He was seen playing tennis with American legend Jimmy Connors over the weekend.
