Stefan Schumacher (Gerolsteiner) rode to a dominant — if surprising — victory in stage 4 of the Tour de France on Tuesday, taking the yellow jersey from overnight leader Romain Feillu (Agritubel).

Sources in the news media have revealed that Ryan Sheckler has apparently broken his arm just four days prior to this week’s Maloof Money Cup at the Orange County Fairgrounds. Despite the unfortunate injury, Shecks still intends to skate to the best of his ability for a chance at the largest-ever first place prize of $100,000.

Whether he will be able to swing a club for a scheduled charity golf event later this month remains in question.
