Chiney out 6-9 mos. (9-11 mos?) due to partially torn Achilles - fullmetal - 12-05-2016
She partially tore her Achilles while playing in China and had surgery a few days ago. The post from the MD indicates 9-11 months RTP (return to playing?), whereas the news article indicates that she'll be out 6-9 months. Terrible news, but not a showstopper for an athlete of her caliber. Best wishes for a quick recovery!
