Another tile for female Austria: new knee-pounding for Christina Ager

The 24-year-old from Innsbruck was injured at Copper Mountain: a fat jump in training.

A new tile for the Austrian women's national team. After Stephanie Brunner in the summer and Bernadette Schild in Soelden, the Wunderteam will almost certainly lose Christina Ager for the entire 2019/2020 season. The sprinter (born slalomist and now ... multipurpose) was injured during a training session at Copper Mountain, where she was preparing the long weekend in Lake Louise (December 6-8) with her team mates; the diagnosis is serious, although not definitive, given that in the next few hours, after returning from the day in Colorado, he will undergo magnetic resonance imaging which should confirm the suspected rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of the right knee. Fatal for the 24-year-old from Innsbruck, landing after a jump, after Ager was returning from the stop suffered in late March, when he had already suffered a crusader injury at the Austrian championships.
