Fractured thumb for Tiffany Cromwell after crashing out of Omloop Het Nieuwsblad WE
CyclingSunday, 25 February 2024 at 11:00
CANYON//SRAM Racing was one of the teams that sent a selection of their riders to yesterday's Omloop Het Nieuwsblad WE 2024 to compete for a win. The race in Belgium was won by Marianne Vos, who outsprinted Lotte Kopecky at the finish line.
As so often in previous editions of the first "classic" of the opening weekend, this year's peloton was also plagued by heavy crashes, forcing the riders to come to a standstill, especially on narrow country lanes bordered by deep ditches. The same thing happened in a similar place earlier in the men's race.
Tiffany Cromwell from the German CANYON//SRAM Racing Team was one of the riders who was badly affected in one of the crashes. She had a very unfortunate fall and had to abandon the race shortly afterwards. Cromwell soon received treatment on her left hand.
It wasn't until late that night that the team gave an update on her injury via their social media channels, in which they wished Tiffany Cromwell a speedy recovery from the broken thumb she sustained in the fall.

- I think this was because there were junior women in the race. If a race has junior women am pretty sure it has to be less than 45 minutes. I believe a rule is coming in for next season that will fine organisers that don't put on a junior women's race a fine equivalent to the prize money. So fingers crossed we should see more longer elite and junior women's races from next season.NorrisHippocampe18-11-2024
- Of course he CAN. Big salary in cycling is not when you win but when they talk about you (and your team / sponsors). For every news about Jonas, MVdP or Wout there are 10 times more(!) news about Pidcock (like everyday for last 2 months?). Since cycling is advertising sport not competitive sport (in terms of from money comes from) Pidcock is winner and GOAT - change my mind. ;-)averagecyclist18-11-2024
- Why do the women CXs keep getting short changed with the length of theor races? They could have easily done another lap to put them at 50 minutes which is their time limit. Yet another CX race where they fail to reach this when they had a chance to. Come on ... the math isn't that hard to figure out lap times and divide into 50 min!frieders318-11-2024
- All pro cyclists are massively underpaid! The amount of riding and physical exertion they put their bodies through is crazy compared to other sports. I can't think of any other sport where you are physically active at a very high level of power output for hours on end each day.Pogboom17-11-2024
- When I was working for Starkist/Heinz my manager quit. So the next week my group was put under another manager. During our first meeting he asked if there was anything we needed to tell him. I said that I would be out the following week on vacation. He said "I don't know if I can let you go on vacation". I replied, "You can't tell if I can go. You can only tell me if I can come back".Sweep17-11-2024
