Tom Curry Overcomes Career-Threatening Hip Injury to Return to Rugby
The England and Sale flanker endured a grueling recovery process after being told he might have to retire at just 26.
- Tom Curry was diagnosed with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, a condition that severely impacted his ability to play rugby.
- After a six-hour surgery, Curry faced months of intensive rehabilitation, including learning to run again at Speedworks in Loughborough.
- Curry made his comeback in Sale's Premiership semi-final against Bath and was subsequently called up for England's summer Tests.
- The experience has led Curry to adopt a more measured approach to training, focusing on working smarter rather than harder to avoid further injury.
- Despite the challenges, Curry remains committed to his all-action style and aims to play a significant role for both Sale and England in the upcoming season.
