Rolland, 32, crashed in a World Cup Super-G in Cortina
d'Ampezzo, Italy, on Monday.
She suffered a similar injury in training in September 2013 and
missed the entire 2014 season and Sochi Winter Olympics as a
result. Rolland has also injured her left knee twice in her
career, her most spectacular crash taking place at the 2010
Vancouver Olympic downhill in Whistler when her knee snapped
immediately after leaving the starting gate.
She won her world downhill title in Schladming, Austria, two
years ago.
