Three-time Olympic gold medalist Anita Wlodarczyk is going to miss the rest of the hammer-throwing season because of a thigh injury that required surgery.
Per the Associated Press, Wlodarczyk tweeted she "totally severed" her thigh muscle while chasing down a thief who tried to break into her car last week.
"I will do everything to come back again to the top," she wrote on social media after undergoing surgery.
