Helicopter to hospital
Italy’s ski super talent takes a bad fall during training
A bad fall overshadowed the training of several young athletes on the Schnals Glacier in South Tyrol on Monday: 19-year-old Matilde Lorenzi had to be flown to hospital by helicopter.
As the Italian news agency ANSA reports, the nasty fall happened on the so-called Grawand slope: The young Italian lost control of her skis, took off and crashed face-first onto the pimple-hard slope with full force.
Flown to hospital by helicopter
The trainers present provided first aid and she was then flown to hospital in Bolzano by rescue helicopter. There is no information yet about the severity of the injuries. Training for the junior skiers on the glacier was stopped immediately.
Lorenzi sensationally won the Italian super-G title last March and is regarded in her home country as one of the greatest talents of recent years.
