We wouldn’t want Caroline Ryan’s sister treating us for any medical ailments.

The Irish track cyclist suffered a shocking fall in action for Ireland over the weekend, snapping her collarbone on the penultimate day of action at the Track Cycling World Championships in London. The cyclist was taken out of the action by Hong Kong's Yao Pang in a fall that looked incredibly painful. https://twitter.com/ryan_caroline/status/706969454891147264 Over the weekend she confirmed her injury. https://twitter.com/ryan_caroline/status/706273784362364928 Today Ryan posted an image of her fracture, and the diagnosis from her medically trained sister is not one that would help you sleep at night. https://twitter.com/ryan_caroline/status/707227447448756224 So it's definitely broken then.
