Track sprinter Gregory Baugé will miss the French championships after having to undergo surgery, his coach Florian Rousseau learned Wednesday. The 23 year-old had an infected wisdom tooth removed. Baugé is still expected to race the team sprint and keirin at the Beijing Olympics, however.
Baugé will not be able to defend his titles in the individual sprint and keirin at the French championships which run from July 3 to July 9 in Hyères, but said he would get back on his bike next week.
