Van Niekerk’s injury woes
South African world record holder Wayde van Niekerk’s defense of his 400-meter world title could be in jeopardy after a knee injury. The two-time world champion had picked up a bone bruise in his right knee that had set back his training by five to six weeks, his agent said. “Sadly guys, I’ve had a minor setback on my road to recovery,” Van Niekerk, 26, said on Twitter. “I’ve been pushing myself a bit too hard in training so that I can make a memorable comeback but I have picked up a bone bruise on my knee so won’t be participating in the upcoming @Diamond_League events.” The Doha world championships are in late September.
