Norwegian skier Aleksander Aamodt Kilde will miss the entire 2024-25 season because his injured left shoulder requires surgery again. Kilde crashed badly in a downhill in Switzerland in January. Kilde says he needs "another surgery to fully fix the shoulder. This unfortunately means I won't be competing this winter." Kilde is a two-time Olympic medalist who has won 21 World Cup races and took the 2020 overall title. He is the fiancé of American ski star Mikaela Shiffrin.
