On Friday 13 July 2007, during the IAAF Golden League at Rome's Olimpic Stadium,
Sdiri was hit in the scapula by a stray javelin thrown by the Finnish athlete Tero Pitkämäki.
The javelin tore a hole in his liver and torn and punctured the right kidney slightly.
After months of rehabilitation Sdiri decided to return to competition for the Beijing Olympics 2008.
In March 2012, he qualified for the finals in the long jump at the World Indoor Championships
with a 7.94 m jump. He came second in the final an 8.01 m jump behind the 8.17 m jump
of Fabrice Lapierre (Australia).
