Lichelle Wong Injured (3rd October, 2006)

The Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf reported that the Dutch champion Lichelle Wong sustained a severe ankle injury (tear in ligament) during training on floor and it's unlikely that she will be fit for Worlds in Aarhus. This is a major blow to the Dutch team, who are also struggling with a non-fit Suzanne Harmes and a recovering Verona van der Leur. The team doctor said that it would be a race against time and that the injury couldn't have come at a worse time.
