Lauren Macuga Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Lauren Macuga, the 23-year-old Park City speed skiing sensation, suffered a crushing blow last Friday when she tore her right ACL during training at Copper Mountain, Colorado, sidelining her for the entire World Cup season and dashing her 2026 Olympic hopes, according to Ski Racing Media and KPCW reports. The rising star, fresh off her breakout 2024-25 campaign with a first World Cup super-G win in St. Anton, Austria, and a World Championships bronze, shared the heartbreaking news on Instagram herself, posting, Its me, Im whats broken. RIP ACL, see you all next year, a candid update that went viral among fans and teammates. Park Record confirmed on December 5 shes prepping for surgery, while Associated Press writer Pat Graham noted her Olympic dreams are on hold, echoing coverage from Powder Magazine on December 1 that ends her fourth pro season prematurely.
