Granerud and Björseth: Tragic injuries in front of the home World Cup!
Trondheim, Norwegen - The Norwegian ski jumper Halvor Egner Granerud will not be able to compete due to injury due to injury. As the Norwegian association confirmed on Friday, the overall World Cup winner from 2020/21 and 2022/23 suffered a tear in the side band of the knee during a training fall in Lillehammer. Granerud is operated on in a timely manner and is expected to pause for four months. In a press release, he expressed: "The sport gives and takes. It is very painful to miss the opportunity to take part in a world championship on local soil." This is particularly painful for Granerud, who lives in Trondheim and has been looking forward to this competition for years, said Krone .
The fate of his colleague, 21-year-old Thea Minyan Björseth, is also particularly tragic. After a fall, in which she competed in Ljubno as a half -time leader, a tear of both cross ribbons and a side band tear in the left knee was diagnosed. In addition, she suffered ligament damage in the elbow. Björseth will also be operated on in the coming week and could therefore miss the 2026 Winter Olympics, as the association announced.The urbanization of sloupes
