US EditionScrumhalf Tomos Williams Out of British and Irish Lions Tour with a Hamstring Injury
- Tomos Williams, the Wales scrum-half, suffered a left hamstring injury while scoring his second try during the British and Irish Lions' 54-7 victory against Western Force at Optus Stadium on Saturday.
- The injury occurred in the second half and led to Williams limping off the field, raising concerns about his availability for the midweek game against Queensland Reds in Brisbane on Wednesday.
- Coach Andy Farrell confirmed it was a tight hamstring and said they would assess the injury further, hoping it was cramp and too early to determine the damage's extent.
- Williams scored two tries in 50 minutes, contributing significantly to the team's dominant performance while others like Mack Hansen and Dan Sheehan also impressed in a squad containing nine new caps.
- Williams' injury places pressure on the Lions' half-back resources, potentially requiring reinforcement decisions, with Alex Mitchell expected to cover in upcoming matches if Williams misses further games.
