Olympian1010 7,474 Posted March 25, 2020 #333 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Man, I remember when people pegged her as someone who would a gold medal one day. She never really came back from her first big injury. She did actually manage to put it altogether in Pyeongchang, and I was hoping she could better her performance in 2022 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

In fact she tore both her ACLs in Lenzerheide when she was just 17 yo. It's almost a miracle she continued for an entire decade after that. She still found success after those three big injuries. The one in Cortina 2010 just before WOG was really unfortunate, it wasn't even a high-speed crash or anything, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monzanator 3,594 Posted April 7, 2020 #340 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Synnoeve Solemdal (biathlon) has retired at the age of 30. Quite frankly her career never recovered from the mononucleosis she picked up in March 2014. Zhang Guowei (high jump) has retired at the age of 28. He didn't do anything since winning silver medal at 2015 World Champs save for a 6th place at the World Indoors in 2016. He bombed out in qualifying at Rio Games and 2017 WChamps.
