Shayla Worley broke her right fibula Friday, all but ending her chances of making the U.S. women’s gymnastics team for the Beijing Olympics.

Worley still was being evaluated at a hospital in nearby Huntsville, so the length of her recovery was unclear. The women’s team leaves for Beijing on July 31, and competition begins Aug. 10.

The injury is the latest blow for Worley, who began the year as a favorite for Beijing. Her right leg had been bothering her when she arrived at the Karolyi ranch for the two-day selection camp, and she heard a “pop” as she was warming up on balance beam.
