(Reuters) - Mikaela Shiffrin said she may have to adjust her schedule to stay fit for next year's winter Olympics in Beijing after missing the start of this season due to a back injury.
American Shiffrin is hoping to add to the two Olympic gold medals and a silver she won from Sochi and Pyeongchang in 2014 and 2018 but a niggling back problem means the 26-year-old's focus is also on prolonging her career.
