Serious fall with serious consequences
“Nightmare come true”: DSV skier seriously injured
The next serious injury in the Ski World Cup: After Marcel Hirscher, Germany's Sebastian Holzmann also suffered a cruciate ligament rupture. The season is over for him.
"That's it at 24/25," the slalom specialist announced the bad news via Instagram. "I've just woken up from my cruciate ligament operation. Not a dream, but a nightmare come true." The 31-year-old also added a photo from his hospital bed and a video of the momentous training crash.
"The physical pain is limited, but inside, inside I'm not feeling well at the moment," said the DSV skier. "I know from my last injury how difficult it is and that this pain is subsiding, but this time it's just worse."
"Giving up is not an option"
2023 Holzmann surprised everyone with fifth place at the World Championships. However, the current season has not started as planned. Neither in Levi nor in Gurgl did the German make it into the points. Now there was an injury shock. "I'm a bit banged up right now, but damn it. Giving up is not an option," assured Holzmann.
