At first I could hardly believe that she wanted to compete at World Cup level again with a knee prosthesis. But when I read her statements, I unfortunately had to realize: she is pretty serious.
During her active time, she suffered two cruciate ligament tears, a medial ligament tear and a tibial plateau fracture in her right knee – but always came back. When she finally retired five years ago after winning bronze at the World Championships, she could barely walk because of the pain.
