Italian skier Elena Curtoni was training at Copper Mountain this week when she crashed and tore a ligament in her right knee.

Curtoni was transported to the local hospital, where she was examined and underwent tests, the results of which were immediately examined by the FISI Medical Commission.

The Italian was just returning from an ankle fracture she sustained in March at the Italian national championships. Her recovery time is unknown, but the injury could keep her out for the entirety of the Olympic season.
