French skier Thomas Fanara’s season ends after knee injury
VAL D’ISERE, France — French skier Thomas Fanara says his season is over after injuring his right knee near the end of a World Cup race.
Fanara says on his Facebook page that a scan showed he ruptured his ACL.
The Frenchman will miss the world championships in February in St. Moritz, where he earned his first career World Cup win last season.
Despite sustaining the injury several gates from the finish in Val d’Isere on Sunday, Fanara still managed to place fourth behind teammate Mathieu Faivre.
