No World Cup, but surgery for Tom Dumoulin after a serious accident on …

Tom Dumoulin can put a line through the rest of his season. The Dutchman was hit during training on Thursday and broke his right wrist. Dumoulin will be operated on Friday in Maastricht, his team Jumbo-Visma reports.

Dumoulin was exploring his own ‘Tour de Dumoulin’, an event scheduled for October 3, in the Ardennes when disaster struck. He was kicked by a turning car, after which he ended up on the road surface through the hood.

“It’s really bad,” said Wout van Aert’s teammate. “My season is finished. That’s really sour, because I just got really good at it again. Also during the training today I felt really strong. I had a lot of confidence that I could ride another very strong month.”
