Dominik Paris's season is
over after he tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of his
right knee during super-G training near Kitzbuehel Tuesday, the
Italian Skiing Federation (FISI) said.
Paris fell at a bend on the course.
"My season ends here," he said.
"Unfortunately while I was sliding the internal ski hit the
snow too hard and the ligament broke.
"There's not a lot to add.
"We'll assess what to do over the next few days, together
with the medical staff".
Paris is second in the world downhill standings after two
recent wins at Bormio and a second place at Wengen, while he is
fifth in the superG standings and fourth in the overall
standings.
