Andersson Battles Knee Issues

Swedish cross-country skier Ebba Andersson reveals her persistent knee problems and mental barriers that caused falls during recent competitions.

Swedish cross-country skiing star Ebba Andersson has opened up about the painful knee issues that caused her to fall during competitions, including during the Winter Games in Val di Fiemme and later in Holmenkollen. Despite her efforts to overcome the problem, the reigning world champion admits it remains unpredictable.

Andersson, who made an involuntary flip with skis on during the relay where Sweden took silver, has been working to overcome mental barriers that emerged toward the end of last season. "It's a bit unpredictable," the veteran skier told news agency TT, explaining how she's been trying to gain control over the knee issues before the new season begins. ipl-cricket.in
