Overview
- Brignone marked nine months since her April 3 injury and resumed group sessions in Val di Fassa, saying confidence is growing but work remains.
- She trained at Passo San Pellegrino with the Italian women’s team in a camp led by coach Gianluca Rulfi, taking incremental steps on differing course sets.
- She recorded her first runs on hard, icy snow in this comeback phase after initial gated skiing days in Courmayeur.
- There is no official Olympic selection yet, and potential January starts at Tarvisio and at the Kronplatz giant are being considered but not confirmed.
- Separately, Austria’s Katharina Liensberger suffered a serious training injury and underwent surgery for knee and tibial damage, which the report says ends her season.
