A Romanian luger who was diagnosed with a concussion after crashing in a women's training run has withdrawn from the Vancouver Olympics.
Violeta Stramaturaru was briefly knocked unconscious in a wreck at the Whistler Sliding Centre on Thursday, less than 24 hours before a Georgian men's slider was killed in a crash on the track's final turn.
Stramaturaru was not seriously injured, Romanian Olympic officials said, but was advised by doctors to withdraw nonetheless.
