After the downhill in the team combined, the all-rounder felt pain in his right knee again. For this reason, he has decided to skip the giant slalom, the federation announced.

Murisier has already had a number of knee injuries and operations. Among other things, he missed the entire 2018/19 season due to a cruciate ligament rupture.

This season, Murisier has already skipped the giant slalom in Adelboden due to knee problems.
