(ANSA) – ROME, APR 8 – Federica Brignone said Tuesday she didn’t know how long it will take her to recover from a bad leg break but she wouldn’t give up.
“We don’t know how long it’s going to take, we’ll take it step by step and then we’ll see, but one thing is sure, I’m not one to give up,” she said on leaving a Milan clinic in a wheelchair where she had surgery to mend a compound fracture and ligament rupture of her left leg, sustained in a fall last week.
The 34-uear-old from Val d’Aosta, Italy’s most successful woman skier, said the thought of returning for next year’s Milan-Cortina Olympics “is a stimulus, but I have to get better first”.
Brignone just won her second overall World Cup title along with downhill, superG and slalom crystal globes. (ANSA).
