Stephanie Brunner still crashes, for the third time in just 17 months, always at that damn left knee. One of the circuit's strongest specialists, already capable of returning to the highest levels during the past season with her first podium in the World Cup, obtained in Killington, but above all an extraordinary continuity of performance, she was again injured during a training with the group that, since last August 8, is at work in Ushuaia. On the Argentine snows, the 25-year-old Tyrolean broke her left knee crusader, returning immediately to be operated, at the Hochrum clinic in Innsbruck by the same doctor, Dr. Christian Fink, who had already spoken about the articulation of the unfortunate Austrian gigantist. Brunner was in fact a veteran of the last January 11 stop, when in training in Pozza di Fassa he injured the same crusader and the meniscus of his left knee, and from that of March 2018, when at the end of the Olympic season he broke in the same way at the championships Austrians. "My first curves in the snow in July had been really good, as if I had never been still - said disconsolate Stephanie - Even in Argentina everything had gone according to plan, the knee worked perfectly and this diagnosis represents a huge disappointment. I can do nothing if I don't take up this challenge again and face it ".
