Danish hope Chris Anker Sørensen (CSC - Saxo Bank) will not be able to start the Deutschland Tour in Kitzbühel Friday due to an injury. His knee gave Sørensen trouble during the Tour of Denmark, and it got worse after the Olympic Games. "Chris has an inflammation in one knee and he hasn't been able to train effectively," said CSC director Kim Andersen to the Danish daily Politeken. "He has had to stay off his bike for some days and he now hopes that treatment at a specialist will help."
