Estonian Kelly Sildaru, the 15-year-old Olympic ski slopestyle favorite, is out indefinitely after suffering a knee injury in a training fall in the past week in New Zealand, according to her social media.
“Until I get home and see my team of doctors and specialist we don’t know how long I will be off skis or what the injury really is,” was posted on Sildaru’s Facebook. “I am determined to put the work in to be back as soon as possible, but also will want to be 100% to ensure a long career.”
The post said Sildaru will provide more details once she learns more about the injury in the next two weeks.
