Wayde Van Niekerk May Miss The 2018 Season After Rupturing ACL

Pretty big news, hurt it in a tag rugby game and is a fairly serious injury. Hopefully, he can come back to the level he was at as this could have big consequences for his performance and the sport. http://www.sportsnet.ca/olympics/van-niekerk-months-injuring-knee-rugby-game/

We have seen huge advances in the treatment of these injuries in the last decade, there should be little reason he would not come back to the same level. Also, he'd be decent at tag rugby I'd imagine.

Would you say he regrets the game of tag rugby?
