Wegmann surgery successful!

Milram’s Fabian Wegmann, who injured  his shoulder in a crash Friday at Tirreno-Adriatico in Italy, underwent surgery near his home in Freiburg, Germany over the weekend.

“The operation yesterday went well and I can start tomorrow with my rehabilitation, it looks like,“ Wegmann said in a team statement. “A crash with an injury is always bad, and in this case, doubly bitter for me. I was in very good form and had plans for the three upcoming Tirreno-Adriatico stages, as well as the next races. Now I can just look forward and get well again soon. If all goes well, I can race again in four to five weeks.”

Milram’s Linus Gerdemann, who won the first stage of Tirreno-Adriatico and led until stage 3, did not start Sunday due to a stomach ailment. Milram’s Johannes Fröhlinger left the race Friday with similar symptoms.
