ROME — Lorenzo Bonicelli is in a “stable condition” and “showing positive signs” after coming out of a medically induced coma following a fall during the rings competition at the World University Games, the Italian Gymnastics Federation said Friday.
The Italian gymnast was taken to a local hospital with neck injuries after his fall on Wednesday during the team final in Essen, Germany. In shock, the Italian team then withdrew from the competition.
The 23-year-old Bonicelli was aiming to qualify for Italy’s team at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
