British decathlete Ben Gregory, who represented Wales in three Commonwealth Games, is in a critical condition after suffering a fractured skull and neck in a serious bike accident last week.
The 31-year-old suffered multiple brain haemorrhages, is in a coma and on life support, his partner Naomi Heffernan said on Instagram. Welsh Athletics confirmed the news on Twitter (NYSE:TWTR).
“Ben needs your positive thoughts and prayers right now,” Heffernan wrote. “Those that know Ben know how strong he is mentally and physically, he’s a fighter and he’ll get through this.”
Gregory competed in the 2010, 2014 and 2018 Commonwealth Games.
