Giant Slalom Ace Reports Bitter Diagnosis
The 29-year-old was injured during training in Sölden. She has since undergone surgery and reported the exact extent of her injury.
Just a few days ago, Canadian ski racer Valerie Grenier shocked her fans with the news that she had suffered a serious knee injury during training.
She sustained the injury during training on the Rettenbachferner glacier in Sölden, where the new Ski World Cup season kicked off on Saturday.

The race took place without Grenier. The 29-year-old flew home to Canada, where she has since undergone surgery.
Grenier: "As we had feared,..."
Via social media, Grenier has now clarified the extent of her injury: "As we had feared, unfortunately, we had to re-operate on my anterior cruciate ligament and simultaneously repair my medial meniscus."
"The great news is that everything went super smoothly," said Grenier. "I'm starting rehab with so much motivation and can't wait to get back to doing what I love!"
However, a race start in the newly commenced World Cup season seems highly unrealistic.
