BERN, Switzerland (AP) — Ski star Lara Gut-Behrami has suffered a potentially career-ending left knee injury during training in the United States.

The 34-year-old Olympic champion in super-G and two-time overall World Cup winner has targeted the Winter Games in February in what she has said is her last season before retiring .

Gut-Behrami is returning to Switzerland for medical examinations after falling in super-G training on Thursday at Copper Mountain in Colorado, the Swiss ski federation said in a statement on Friday.

The federation did not elaborate on the injury but Swiss daily Blick reported a suspected ACL tear for the three-time Olympic medalist. Recovery from an ACL tear can take six to 12 months.
