"The surgery today went well! Fortunately, I will finally be able to return to the US," Vonn said on Instagram. Once she returns, she will provide further updates on her injury. She will also have to undergo further surgery in the US.
"Was physically stronger"
She once again defended her decision to race. "I was willing to take risks, give everything, and make sacrifices for something I knew I could achieve. I'd rather take the risk of falling than not reach my potential and regret it later," Vonn explained. "And honestly, physically, I was stronger at that moment than I often had been before. Definitely stronger than at the end of my career in 2019, when I won the bronze medal at the World Championships," she added. Mentally, she was "more prepared than ever before."
"The love for skiing remains. I still look forward to the moment when I can stand at the top of a mountain once again. And I will," Vonn declared combatively.
