VIENNA -- Olympic super-G champion Anna Fenninger left a training camp with the Austrian women's team in Cyprus on Wednesday amid an ongoing dispute with her national ski federation.
The two-time overall World Cup champion has traveled back to Austria to train individually, the federation says.
Fenninger and the national governing body have been quarreling for months about the skier's personal manager and about Fenninger's wish to have one of the team physicians working exclusively for her.
In an email to the federation, Fenninger wrote that she'd rather leave the federation than part ways with her manager, Klaus Kaercher of Germany. Parts of the message have been published in Austrian magazine SportWoche.
The federation says it has never asked Fenninger to break up with Kaercher.
