DOHA, Qatar—Grant Wahl, the prominent American soccer journalist who died while covering the World Cup in Qatar last week, had suffered an aortic aneurysm that ruptured, his wife said on Wednesday. 

Dr. Céline Gounder, who married Mr. Wahl in 2001, revealed the findings of an autopsy, performed by the New York City medical examiner’s office, on CBS This Morning, after his body had been flown back to the U.S.
