With just one final round to go, Tomac will not be lining up at the starting gate in Utah on Saturday. The points leader came off a jump and seriously injured his Achilles tendon at the race in Denver. Tomac went straight to the medical center at the track and later had his injury looked at by professionals.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7030\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2023SupercrossDenver_TomacInjury-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nTomac was leading in the points and only had to finish 20<sup>th<\/sup> or better to lock up the Supercross Championship in the final round. Cooper Webb just a couple weeks ago also suffered an injury that ended his season. Now it\u2019s up to Chase Sexton to bring the championship home for his team.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7031\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/StarRacingYamahaTomac-Post-979x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"669\" \/>\r\n\r\n\u201cI am basically at a loss for words for what happened and how it happened,\u201d said Tomac in a video posted to social media. He also said he is not sure what is in his future for racing, leaving doubt that he could return after recovering from his injury.","excerpt":"<p>Eli Tomac\u2019s chase for the Supercross Championship has come to a heartbreaking end.

On a jump, Tomac seriously injured his ankle and was forced to pull off the track leaving his Supercross Championship in jeopardy. Cianciarulo was back to the lead trying hold of Chase Sexton.

Cooper Webb quickly moved into second with Tomac following in third. Tomac moved around Webb and began to chase down Sexton. With just six minutes left on the clock, Sexton crashed into a corner marker. Tomac moved to the lead. Sexton remounted and held on for second until Webb made his move. Once Webb was around Sexton, he began to chase Tomac down. On the final lap, Tomac made an error, landing awkwardly into the face of a small jump. Webb charged hard and Tomac was able to hold on, claiming the win by less than a second. Tomac now ties Ricky Carmichael for all-time wins at 48.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-6624\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2023SupercrossOakland_250Podium-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nThe Western Regional 250sx were back at Oakland and just the same as the Eastern stories unfolded, a Lawrence was on the top of the podium.
