Hey there, snow sports fans! ❄️
Have you heard the news about Gu Ailing? She’s a super cool freestyle skier who won gold medals at the Winter Olympics! 🥇 But sadly, she won’t be competing in the upcoming ninth Asian Winter Games in Harbin, the Chinese mainland, because she got injured. 😔
Gu Ailing shared on social media that she had a “severe contusion” (that’s a bad bruise) after she fell during an event at the Winter X Games in Aspen, Colorado last month. Ouch! She tried to get better in time for the Asian Winter Games, but she got hurt again while training. So, she had to make the tough decision to withdraw from the competition.
She said, “I’m really sad that I can’t be there, but I wish all the other athletes the best of luck! I’ll be working hard to recover and get back on the slopes as soon as possible!” 🌟
The Asian Winter Games are super exciting and will start this Friday and go on until February 14. Let’s cheer on all the athletes and hope Gu Ailing gets well soon! 🎉
Stay tuned for more updates, and keep shredding! 🏂
