Alpine skier Madison Hoffman announced Tuesday she will represent Australia at the 2026 Winter Games.
The 25-year-old University of Utah alum is coming back from a double knee injury. Hoffman missed the 2025 season after she tore her ACL in one knee and MCL in the other in December 2024.
Her first post-injury race was Jan. 8, 2026.
Hoffman said on Instagram, she celebrated her first steps off crutches a year ago and is now heading to the Olympics.
Hoffman is one of 41 Park City Nation athletes heading to Italy this year. Park City represents about a fifth of the 232-athlete roster for the Milan Cortina Games.
The Games begin Feb. 6 in Italy. The U.S. Paralympic roster will be announced closer to the March 6 Games.
