SNOWBOARDING - HALFPIPE: Golden girl Torah Bright had a fall during Halfpipe training at Rosa Khutor Extreme Park on Monday night local time but thankfully she is fine.
Bright knocked her head towards the end of the training session and was taken to the Olympic Village as a precaution. She was helped out of the pipe by Chinese snowboarder Xuetong Cai after the tumble.
The Olympic Champion is not concussed and was smiling as she walked to the bus to leave the venue. She even signed a few autographs on her way.
There is no official Halfpipe training scheduled for Tuesday.
Bright will have one last chance to test out the pipe in pre-competition training on Wednesday, before she attempts to defend her Vancouver 2010 Gold medal.
The 27-year-old place seventh in the Slopestyle on Day 2, Sunday.
