The Bergamo-born skier left the ‘La Madonnina’ clinic in Milan where she had undergone surgery after fracturing her tibia and malleolus.

“I didn’t ski last week; I took a break. I tried to detach my head, because I had accumulated too much nervousness.”

The 32-year-old from Valtellina, who fractured her sacrum in the super-G in St. Moritz last December 8, is back on skis but the healing process has been slower than expected and she has decided to postpone her return to competition until next winter.

“Athletes’ needs must be listened to.”

In the opening race of the rainbow event, Didier Bionaz and Tommaso Giacomel collected three penalty laps and it was impossible for Dorothea Wierer and Lisa Vittozzi to make a comeback toward the medal zone. The Azzurri finish tenth, gold to France, silver to Norway, bronze to Sweden.

The Valle d’Aosta manager explained why she did not say goodbye to the Bergamasque.

“I feel so sorry for Sofia, I hope everything will be okay. But she’s tough, she’s come back many times, and she’ll make it this time too.”

“I thought it would be an opportunity to have a unique experience.”

The well-established quartet is ready for a new assault on the top positions to get off to a good start at the rainbow event.

The surgery is behind her. She will be discharged in the next few days.

“Chilling news, I cried. But it will rise again,” stressed the former blue skier interviewed by Sportal.it.

Dr. Panzeri: “The surgery went well.”

“She is very tried, it was a good period.”
