Olympic Floor Champ Sandra Izbasa injured

The Couch Gymnast relays the bad news:

… The Romanian paper, Prosport just reported that Sandra Izbasa has been badly injured during a workout last night. During training her Tsukahara vault tumbling, Izbasa ruptured her achilles tendon and damaged her metatarsals. She was sent as an emergency case to Bucharest by her coach, Forminte, who attributed it to a bad, bad landing.

Forminte also said that she was very lucky she had “the presence of mind” to pull her head around or it could have been worse (or maybe that he pulled her around- translation ever an issue!). …

Sandra was training for the Romanian Nationals to be held this weekend.
