DENVER, CO – In a surprising turn of events, motocross racer Ty Masterpool will not be participating in today’s Supercross race in Denver. Masterpool has been battling a lung infection for the past few weeks, which has significantly impacted his performance and overall health.

Ty Masterpool attempted to compete in the Last Chance Qualifier (LCQ) challenge on Friday, but it was evident that he was struggling. Despite his determination and passion for the sport, his health condition has forced him to take a step back.

The decision to participate in the final Supercross race in Salt Lake City remains uncertain. Masterpool’s team will continue to monitor his health closely and make a decision closer to the event.

Masterpool’s health and recovery are of utmost importance, and we wish him a speedy recovery. His absence from today’s race is a reminder of the physical demands and risks associated with this high-intensity sport.
