Graz – The diagnosis following the examination of snowboarder Alexander Payer, who had injured his knee, in the Graz-Ragnitz private clinic was sobering. Bakuriani, third in the World Cup in the parallel giant slalom, tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee during the slalom qualifier on Tuesday. That means the end of the season for the overall World Cup leader. The 33-year-old from Carinthia will be operated on Thursday. (APA, 2/22/2023)
