CNN —Aleksander Aamodt Kilde remembers seeing the net along the edge of the ski slope rushing towards him at 120 km/h (74.6 mph). Mikaela Shiffrin was waiting at the hospital when Kilde came out of surgery. The American, widely considered one of the greatest skiers of all time, then traveled to Austria where she earned an emotional victory – her 94th overall World Cup win, the most in men’s or women’s skiing history – in the FIS World Cup women’s slalom. “Really, really proud of this evening,” she said, per the Olympic channel. “She just shows up, the star she is, and for me how much love she brings and how much care she brings into something that’s really, really difficult,” he said.

INNSBRUCK, Austria (AP) — Downhill racer Aleksander Aamodt Kilde is having a second operation Thursday five days after his shocking crash and airlifted exit from Switzerland’s signature World Cup event. The first surgery Saturday in the Swiss capital Bern was urgent to repair a severe cut and nerve damage in his right calf. “Considering the impact of the crash and the fact that I went into the net at 120 (kmh, 75 mph) I am doing surprisingly well,” Kilde wrote. “It’s tough, but these opportunities show us what we’re made of,” said Kilde, a two-time Olympic medalist and winner of the season-long World Cup downhill title for the past two years. Kilde will miss skiing’s most feared and prized downhill Saturday at Kitzbühel, Austria, which he won in each of the past two years.

BERN, Switzerland (AP) — Downhill racer Aleksander Aamodt Kilde dislocated his shoulder in a nasty crash and posted a photograph Sunday with partner Mikaela Shiffrin at his bedside in a hospital in Bern where he had surgery. He's the two-time defending champion in the season-long downhill standings and a two-time medalist at the 2022 Beijing Olympics. It was the third straight day of racing on an unusually intense program at Switzerland’s most storied ski venue. The race program was criticized Saturday by star downhillers Marco Odermatt and Cyprien Sarrazin after organizers scheduled speed races on back-to-back-to-back days on an historically long course. An extra downhill on Thursday was added to the Wengen program to replace a race canceled last month because of the weather at Beaver Creek, Colorado.
