South African cyclist Ryan Cox, 28, died in the Kempton Park hospital around 5am on Wednesday, 702 Eyewitness News reported.
Cox, who rides for Team Barloworld, although he was not part of the team for the Tour de France, underwent a vascular lesion operation in Europe three weeks ago.
He returned to South Africa to recuperate, but his condition deteriorated on Monday, and he was rushed to hospital.
The radio station reported that Cox had died while undergoing emergency surgery to repair a bleeding artery.
It also reported that his heart had stopped three times before going into theatre.
