Slovenian cyclist Urska Žigart is reported to have suffered a fractured jaw after a serious crash during the Tour de Suisse Femmes. The incident occurs in the final kilometre of stage two, in Locarno, on Thursday. ABC Australia describes the crash as a heavy fall in which Žigart is thrown across the road. BBC Sport similarly reports that the rider sustains a fractured jaw, describing the crash as high-speed.
Both accounts agree the injury is a jaw fracture and that the accident happens during stage two of the women’s Tour de Suisse, as the race is approaching Locarno. While details of the cause of the crash are not provided in the excerpts, the descriptions emphasize the severity of the fall. The reports do not include information on her immediate medical treatment, any timeline for recovery, or the impact on the remainder of the event. The focus remains on the injury and the location and timing within the stage where the crash takes place.
