Mikaela Shiffrin

I saw Mikaela's "bruise."

I'm glad she didn't tear anything, but man that looks brutal.

And I know I started it, but please don't post the pic here!

You are amazing MS, I'm rooting for you.

Apparently the wound wasn’t healing properly so she had surgery on Thursday and they put in a drain. So she will be off the circuit for longer than expected. Bummer.

Longer than first expected. But certainly the correct decision. Last thing you want is to discover months into the recovery is there is fluid or a deeper layer that has not healed. I must say I was shocked at how slender she is. I was expecting more of a gym rat build complete with abdomen six pack. Makes me admire her skiing abilities even more. Hopefully she can return at some point in the season. From interviews she certainly has a personality that is easy to root for. You can not say that about all top athletes.
