TESERO, Italy (AP) — Bruised ribs are undermining American cross-country skiing star Jessie Diggins' hopes of achieving something satisfying from her last Winter Olympics in Milan Cortina. Diggins was hurt in a fall in her opening race — the 20-kilometer skiathlon — on Sunday and the toll also limited her ability to put in a strong finish in the sprint classic on Tuesday in Tesero.
