German Skiers Jocher and Schramm Withdraw from Hahnenkamm Races Due to Injuries

Simon Jocher cites severe foot pain, while Jacob Schramm suffers multiple knee ligament tears after a training crash.

Simon Jocher, 28, has withdrawn from the Hahnenkamm-Rennen in Kitzbühel due to ongoing severe foot pain caused by a heel injury sustained in December.
Jocher attempted training earlier in the week but experienced significant swelling and pain, leading to his decision to skip the Super-G and downhill events.
Jacob Schramm, 26, suffered ligament tears in both knees and a mild concussion following a crash during Wednesday's training session.
The German speed team is now reduced to Romed Baumann and Luis Vogt for the remainder of the Kitzbühel races.
Jocher's participation in upcoming events, including the Garmisch-Partenkirchen race on February 2 and the World Championships in Saalbach-Hinterglemm from February 4–16, remains uncertain.
