Sellier Undergoes Surgery After Olympic Face Injury

Polish speed skater Kamila Sellier underwent surgery after suffering a facial cut in a Winter Olympics crash involving American skater Kristen Santos-Griswold.

25-year-old Sellier, who posted an update on Instagram saying she is "doing okay," was injured during a crash that also involved 14-time Olympic medalist Arianna Fontana of Italy. The collision occurred when Santos-Griswold was penalized for an illegal lane pass, which prevented her from advancing to the quarter-final round.

The incident took place during short track speed skating competition at the Winter Olympics, with Sellier requiring medical attention immediately following the crash.
