Czech Olympic skier in medically induced coma following brain surgery after downhill fall in Germany

Nova was in her final training session on Friday when she crashed on the Kandahar course. 

"We are all thinking of Tereza and wish her a speedy recovery and lots of strength," the ski federation said on Saturday.

Her best finish was 14th place during the women's alpine combined event. She also competed in mixed team parallel, where she finished 14th as well, women's downhill (28th) and women's Super-G (33rd).

Nova has also competed in World Cup races since 2019, where she made her debut in November, though she didn't qualify for the second round of the slalom event in Levi. 

Nova's international debut came in December 2014, and she would compete in the Junior World Championships in Val di Fassa five years later.
