Team Ineos boss Sir Dave Brailsford states he’ll find out Saturday whether operation has been successful.
The 55-year-old, who leads the former Team Sky, told the Times.
“There is guaranteed to be anxiety. It’s the wonderful unknown,” he said.
“I believe I am resilient, tough, however in hospital one day that I was overwhelmed, to be honest. It’s easy to think’why is it happening to me'”
He added:”I have worked hard on my health so you can get bitter, angry, frustrated. I had to learn to take it. Speaking about it among the team was a gigantic assistance.”
Team Ineos riders Egan Bernal won the Tour de France to give Brailsford’s group seven Tour successes from the previous eight years.
The former British Cycling performance manager directed Great Britain to eight gold medals in the Beijing Olympics in 2008 and the exact identical amount in London four decades later, before leaving to concentrate on Team Sky.
Brailsford told the Times:”I work really hard; I bill around. Some might say I am obsessive. I get really focused on things that are little and am able to drop perspective. I just wish to enjoy it more.”
