Crazy fan: Five-time Olympic champion swimmer Ryan Lochte was injured during an encounter with a teenage girl during a visit to Gainesville, Florida earlier over the weekend.

According to a statement from Lochte's publicist, Janice Lee, the swimmer tore his MCL and sprained his ACL in his left knee when the young fan launched herself at him. Lochte attempted to catch her but fell and struck his knee on the curb. The girl was not hurt.

Lee said in a statement issued on Tuesday that Lochte's medical team expects him "to make a full and speedy recovery."

The 29-year-old Rochester, New York, native is next scheduled to represent the U.S. in the Duel in the Pool meet in Scotland from December 20-21.
