All Blacks utility Damian McKenzie is keeping his spirits high after having surgery on the injured knee that has ruled him out of this year's Rugby World Cup.
McKenzie confirmed on social media he had surgery on his right knee and had come through without any complications.
He posted a picture of himself smiling in crutches with bandaging around his right knee.
McKenzie ruptured his ACL.
Mckenzie posted “surgery all done, a bit of a different challenge to overcome this year rather than the one he was hoping for”.
Teammates and rivals such as Ryan Crotty, Beauden Barrett, Quade Cooper and more left messages of support to McKenzie after he posted the picture.
