Rogers to miss TDU as heart condition worsens
Sport
Michael Rogers will miss the Australian road cycling championships and the Tour Down Under next month after a long-term heart condition worsened.
The 35-year-old was diagnosed with a congenital bicuspid aortic valve in 2001, and a recent routine check showed the condition had progressed.
Rogers plans to retire at the end of next season, but both he and the team are aiming for a quick return.
