After knee surgery
World Cup comeback? Vonn feels “incredible”
The skiing ambitions of ex-US ski ace Lindsey Vonn have been confirmed by those close to her, but not those surrounding her return to the World Cup. According to a confidant, she feels "incredible" after having a knee replacement in the spring.
The four-time overall World Cup winner has recovered well from the operation, has been given the green light to ski and is on her way back, the Reuters news agency was told. However, it is unclear whether she will race again.
Training in Sölden
Vonn was last seen training on the Rettenbach glacier in Sölden, where the first World Cup races are scheduled for next week. Austrian downhill coach Sepp Brunner was quoted in the Swiss newspaper Blick as saying that he had observed Vonn "practising gliding turns in a very ambitious manner".
The former speed dominator celebrated 82 World Cup successes and competed in her last race to date at the World Championships in Aare, Sweden, in February 2019. Vonn will celebrate her 40th birthday on Friday.
