Knee injury for Thomas Mermillod-Blondin, likely six months stop

The 30 year old Frenchman Thomas Mermillod-Blondin, a specialist in super-G and super combined, is fell to Le Grand-Bornand in the tests on the materials. The first diagnosis is partial lesion of the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.

Great luck for the trans that was probably the best moment of his career, having finished second in the super-G World Cup finals in Lenzerheide, mocked the last to fall, his compatriot Alexis Pinturault, who then beat in the race of French championships specialty Méribel. Next week will be additional checks and if it should be necessary to do so, for Mermillod Blondin-stop for six months and then it would be likely to occur with virtually no training at the start of next season.
