After her comeback in the downhill on Saturday, the US American Lindsey Vonn followed up her performance in the super-G races on Sunday in Copper Mountain! The former speed dominator and Olympic champion finished 24th and 19th. 

Vonn returned to the alpine skiing stage on Saturday with 24th and 27th place in two FIS sprint downhill races in Copper Mountain. "This is just the beginning and the way I'm skiing is more important than the times at the moment," Vonn said on social media after her comeback. "I'm sure people will speculate and say I'm not in top form based on the results, but I disagree. This was training for me."

She went one better on Sunday. The gap between the 40-year-old and American Lauren Macuga, who was fastest twice, was just over two seconds in each case - putting her in 19th and 24th place.

Vonn had taken a break for almost six years and deliberately chose the lower-class races in Colorado for her comeback. Her goal is the World Cup.
