terrible injury to Samir Aït-Saïd
I don’t want to watch the video. 😦
It was a compound fracture of his tibia/fibula. He will have surgery in Rio.
Recall Samir missed the 2012 Olympic Games because of a knee injury on Dragulescu at the European championships in Monptellier.
There’s too much incentive to throw dangerous vaults in both MAG & WAG. I blame FIG rules. 😦
Fabian Hambüchen spoke out to the media on this point after his teammate Toba was injured.
Ri Se Gwang – Dragulescu pike
The favourite for Gold on Vault. His second vault was equally difficult, equally well done.
