 SESTRIERE, Italy (AP) - It's not the symmetry Kristina Koznick wants. The top-ranked U.S. women's slalom skier is hoping that her Olympic career doesn't end the way it started — on the injury list instead of the slopes.
Koznick partially tore ligaments in her right knee while warming up for a World Cup race in Germany last weekend, and she doesn't know if she'll even participate in Friday's opening ceremony, much less the women's slalom on Feb. 22. She said she won't march if she's on crutches.
"I'm at least working toward a chance, which is better than nothing," she said by phone Wednesday on her way to be fitted for a brace.
