Degenkolb Hospitalized for Further Examinations


Trek-Segafredo announced today that John Degenkolb has been hospitalized to do further examinations after he had to abandon last week, in the 5th stage of PostNord Danmark Rundt – Tour of Denmark.

Team doctor, Jens Hinder: “In the last races he did, John suffered from breathing problems and a serious lack of power that prevented him to perform at his level. His condition was not improving enough over the last week, so we decided he had to undergo more profound examinations of his heart and lungs. John is feeling relatively well but has been hospitalized pending the results of these examinations. We will publish an update on his condition as soon as we have more information.”
