CORTINA D'AMPEZZO, Italy, Feb 7 : Italy's most successful women's skier Federica Brignone will compete in the Alpine skiing downhill race on Sunday at the Milano Cortina Olympics, the Italian winter sports federation said on Saturday.

The 35-year-old had been assessing her condition after an accident last April left her with multiple leg fractures and a torn anterior cruciate ligament.

Brignone will ski on the Olympia delle Tofane piste with bib number three.
