GB Olympic hopeful Sky Brown injured

At just 15 years old, Sky is ranked third in the world

British skateboarder Sky Brown will miss this weekend's Olympic Qualifier Series in Shanghai because of a knee injury.

The 15-year-old tore a ligament in her knee in April and her injury means she won't be able to compete.

Injuries like this can take more than six weeks to recover from.

Despite this, she is confident that she will be back stronger for the Games in Paris.

At the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, Sky became Great Britain's youngest Olympic medal winner of all time after winning a bronze in the skateboard park event.

Sky won a bronze medal at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, when she was just 13!

Sky is currently ranked third in the world, and to qualify for the Paris Games, skateboarders must be ranked inside the world's top 20 by 23rd June.

Sky isn't letting her injury, or missing out on competing this weekend, worry her.

She told NBC: "Every injury I've had, I've come back stronger.

"So this is just my time to really think about what I want to do next. It really puts a fire in my heart - it happens, it is part of life."

The Paris Games start on 26 July.
