Sarah Hendrickson out for season after another knee surgery

Sarah Hendrickson, the first woman to ski jump in the Olympics in 2014, will miss the upcoming World Cup season after reinjuring her surgically repaired right knee in June and undergoing another surgery this week.

“I am not giving up on my dreams that I set years ago — this is just another speed bump in the road but my story isn’t over,” Hendrickson said in a press release. “It’s a bummer for me to miss the World Cup tour this season, but I’m fortunate that this is a year without and Olympics or World Championships.
