Lindsey Vonn Reveals Olympic Comeback Plans After Crash
Lindsey Vonn Reveals Olympic Comeback Plans After Crash
US speed queen Lindsey Vonn has expressed that her ambition to compete in the upcoming Winter Olympics remains undeterred, despite a crash during the Crans-Montana downhill on Friday.
“I crashed today in the downhill race in Switzerland and injured my left knee," the 41-year-old American shared on social media. “My Olympic dream is not over."
Three training runs for the women's Olympic downhill in Cortina d'Ampezzo are set for February 5-7. To compete in the medal event on February 8, skiers must complete at least one of these runs.
Vonn added, “I am discussing the situation with my doctors and team and will continue to undergo further exams. This is a very difficult outcome one week before the Olympics… but if there's one thing I know how to do, it's a comeback. It's not over until it's over…"
Vonn, the 2010 Olympic downhill champion and one of the most recognisable faces in world sport, lost control on a turn and skidded into the safety netting during Friday's race, the final downhill before the February 6-22 Milan-Cortina Olympics. Despite skiing to the bottom of the Swiss piste after her crash, she appeared to be in significant discomfort from her left knee, stopping several times.
After embracing teammate Jacqueline Wiles in the finish area, seemingly in tears, Vonn was promptly evacuated by helicopter for medical checks. Vonn was expected to be a notable figure at the Milan-Cortina Games, having achieved seven podium finishes in eight races this season, including two downhill victories in St. Moritz and Zauchensee.
The Crans-Montana race, which took place at the site of a deadly fire a month ago that killed 40 young people and injured 116, was the final downhill before the Olympics.
Vonn was one of three crash victims among the first six skiers at the Swiss resort: Austria's Nina Ortlieb and Marte Monsen of Norway also crashed. Organisers decided to cancel the race after Vonn's crash due to “adverse conditions".
“Following difficulties experienced by the first six racers, the jury interrupted the race due to growing safety concerns. Athlete safety remained the top priority, with the jury ultimately deciding to cancel the competition," FIS announced. Women's World Cup race director Peter Gerdol said worsening visibility was behind the decision. Athletes, he said, “couldn't see the race line properly and it caused mistakes". “We saw six athletes starting and all six had some mistakes. This was a sign that it was a high-risk situation. We know that our sport is a risky sport, but the feeling was too much risk."
Vonn indicated that the race should not have started. One fan commented on her Instagram post, “Race should be cancelled before you start!", to which Vonn simply replied, “Yes".
A women's super-G is scheduled for Saturday with a men's downhill on Sunday. Norwegian team doctor Trond Floberghagen said Monsen, one of the skiers who crashed, “has some pain in her knee and will return to Norway" for further examinations.
“So far, there are no findings of injuries to the head or face," Floberghagen said, adding that it was too early to determine when the 26-year-old might return to skiing.
Throughout her long career, Vonn has torn ligaments in both knees, suffered broken arms and legs, and endured a concussion. Less than two years ago, she underwent a partial left knee replacement to resolve persistent pain from her multiple injuries. Just over six months later, she returned to the sport at age 40 following her retirement in 2019.
Vonn won Olympic downhill gold in Vancouver in 2010, eight years after making her Games debut in Salt Lake City as a fresh-faced teenager. She is set to be one of seven Americans competing in their fifth Olympics.
