Santiago Gomez Cora, the McDonald’s Fiji Coral Coast 7s Ambassador for 2025, will not be attending the upcoming tournament in Sigatoka next week. The head coach of Argentina’s 7s team recently underwent emergency surgery, and his medical team has advised him against traveling for at least a month.
Initially, Gomez Cora was set to appear alongside Fiji’s 7s Coach Osea Kolinisau as ambassadors for the event, highlighting their significant roles in promoting the tournament. Although his absence will be felt, it is crucial for him to prioritize his health and recovery during this time.
This unfortunate development serves as a reminder of the importance of well-being, and fans can look forward to Gomez Cora’s return to coaching and participation in future events.
