Florian Landuyt – Achilles

I’ve not seen official statistics as yet, but it sounds like we had about 6 serious injuries at Worlds 2015. About 1% of the competitors suffered injuries in Glasgow that will require months of recovery.

Florian is an up-and-coming gymnast from Belgium, happy to have qualified for the AA Final last minute.

 

But on take-off for double double on Floor, he snapped an Achilles. 😦

 
Artistic Gymnastics is a dangerous sport. 😦 We need to do more to reduce that rate.
