Jack Robinson has revealed he won his Paris Olympics silver medal while surfing carrying a serious knee injury, with the top-ranked Australian male finally undergoing surgery.
The 27-year-old, who finished the 2025 season as world No.5, went under the knife more than two years after he suffered the injury while competing at Victoria's Bells Beach.
The West Australian entered that event in April 2023 as the rankings leader, winning at Hawaii's Pipeline, then finishing runner-up at Sunset Beach and third in Portugal.
