French women’s coach Larbi Benboudaoud was a little bit unlucky helping Teddy Riner this weekend with his warming up. The eight time world champion, had asked Benboudaoud to help him warm-up and 140kg Riner fell on former world 66kg champion Benboudaoud.
"My wrist swelled up immediately. When I arrived back in Paris I immediately went to hospital where I was operated on. My wrist was like a jigsaw puzzle," Benboudaoud.
Benboudaoud, a Sydney Olympics silver medallist, had four pins inserted with his wrist, which will remain in a splint for six weeks.
"I'm 42 years and it's the first time I've spent the night in hospital. Teddy was very upset," he said.
Riner usually trains with lightweight judokas to try and learn from their speed.
"This is the first time since I started training with the light weights that this has happened to me," he lamented.
