Tony Hawk has broken his leg, which he admits may affect his future in skateboarding.
Hawk, 53, who retired from professional skateboarding in 2003, still skates often. He took to Instagram with the news of his injury, saying he faces a long road to recovery.
Alongside a photo of his X-ray and a video of himself on crutches, Hawk wrote: "Yesterday sucked. I broke my elbow 20 years ago and managed to make a full comeback; this recovery for a broken femur will be much harder because of its severity (and my age). But I'm up for the challenge."
When Kenyan President William Ruto touched down in Beijing seven months ago, he was welcomed on the tarmac with a red carpet and cordons of Chinese troops standing at attention. Among the goals of his three-day state visit in October: Securing another $1 billion in loans from China to help complete infrastructure projects.
