Gu reportedly gave a health update on her Weibo account.

"Unfortunately, a very terrible accident occurred yesterday due to human error," she wrote. "Hopefully I’ll be back on the snow soon, but I’m still waiting for final confirmation from the expert team.

"I have to concentrate fully during training, especially when I am preparing to start, as it’s very dangerous to be interrupted. I also have to focus on picturing and imagining the moves while on the cable car. In order to save time, I don’t have lunch breaks and try to use the bathroom as little as possible. So please don’t record or take photos while I’m training."

Gu won two gold medals and a silver at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing.
