Lindsey Vonn’s improbable comeback reached new heights this weekend in St. Moritz, where the 41-year-old not only won her first race in nearly eight years but followed it with a second-place finish the next day.
Overwhelmed with emotion after Friday’s historic win – her 83rd career victory – Vonn called her father in tears. “I’ve never heard him so emotional in my whole life,” she shared.
Saturday’s runner-up spot behind Germany’s Emma Aicher reinforced Vonn’s resurgence, powered by a titanium knee implant and relentless offseason training.
From retirement in 2019 to dominating the speed events again, Vonn’s story is one of defiance, strength, and pure passion for the sport.
