Kristen Faulkner, two-times stages winner from 2022 Giro Donne, sustained a fracture to her knee in a car accident in California, United States. As a result, 30-year old Faulkner will not race Tour de France Femmes later in summer. Her team Jayco AlUla team released a statement regarding the situation earlier.
"Kristen Faulkner was hit by a car whilst out training in California recently and sustained a small fracture to her knee," the team’s statement reads.
"Unfortunately due to the incident, Faulkner will be unable to race until the knee has healed. As always, the health and wellbeing of riders is the priority and Faulkner will work closely with the medical team throughout this recovery period. We wish Kristen all the best with her recovery."
