World cycling champion regains consciousness after four-month coma following crash

Cycling world champion Amy Pieters has reportedly regained consciousness after she was placed into an induced coma following a training crash back in December.

Pieters, the three-time Madison world champion, suffered a horrific crash as she trained in Spain during the festive period. The 30-year-old was immediately placed into a coma after doctors performed emergency surgery.

The accident occurred on December 23 2021 and the Dutchwoman was rushed to hospital as doctors aimed to relieve pressure on her brain. Pieters was then transported to a hospital in her native Netherlands in January, where she has remained in the care of specialists.
