Wendy Holdener, a Swiss skier and two-time Olympic slalom medalist, has undergone ankle surgery following a training accident in Italy.
The surgery could potentially end Holdener's season, as she is expected to be off skis for about two months.
Holdener's absence leaves Mikaela Shiffrin without one of her main slalom rivals.
Holdener is set to miss at least six World Cup slaloms, with two more scheduled in March.
Holdener has a record of 35 podium finishes in World Cup slaloms, including two wins, and has won two world championship titles in combined events.
