Hampered earlier by an injury, Kim Yu-na (18, Suri High
School) is likely to participate in next month?s World
Figure Skating Championships.
Kim is currently in Korea to receive treatment for her
injured hip. But thanks to a fast recovery, her hope to
win the championships has been renewed.
Kim?s management company, IB Sports, announced, "The
results of her re-examination shows that 90 percent of
her injury is now healed due to a fast recovery."
Dr. Cho Seong-yeon at Sports Medical Clinic SKY said,
"Kim?s injuries in her hip joint cord and gluteus muscle
are almost cured. She should now be able to train at 70
percent of her normal training level."
In consultation with coach Brian Orser, Kim will set a
new training schedule in preparation for the World
Championships (Mar. 17 to 23) in Sweden. Her recovery
will be closely monitored until the end of this month.
