Annemarie Worst out of competition following European Championships crash, return date unknown
Cyclocross
Things are not going well for Annemarie Worst. The Dutchwoman hurt her knee in a fall at the European Championships, which resulted in a hospital visit where she was informed of inflammation in her knee.
As a result, she cannot train and race indefinitely. "This is not what I was hoping to share with you," Worst wrote on Instagram. She continues, "This picture was taken before I went to the doctor when I could still smile. But the news is not what I had hoped for. My knee didn't feel better after my fall in Namur, so I had a scan done. And the result was that I have inflammation in my knee.”
She has not provided any dates when she can make her return. For now, she will take some time off the track and focus on healing her knee. “Now I have to rest my knee, and I don't know when I can train and race again. So you won't see me at the start, but I hope I return soon," concluded Worst.

- “During a TT, I am basically blind”. That was his quote after crashing into the barriers in a TT. The problem isn’t the UCI, radios or air bags. The problem is the riders and their teams.JoeyB22-12-2024
- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
