Lindsey Vonn at least one more time under the knife, but she's not done yet.

American ski star Lindsey Vonn is currently recovering from a severe injury sustained during the Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina. She tore her anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in her left knee on January 30 while competing in a World Cup event in Crans-Montana. Despite the injury, she decided to compete at the Olympics but had to withdraw after just 13 seconds into her downhill run on February 8. Vonn suffered a complex fracture of her shin and was airlifted to the hospital, where she stayed for eight days and underwent multiple surgeries. She confirmed that she will undergo another surgery to repair the ACL, which could take place in November or winter, followed by approximately nine months of rehabilitation. This means she likely won’t fully recover before the summer or autumn of 2027. Vonn remains uncertain whether she will continue her competitive career after rehabilitation. She made a surprising return to the World Cup in late 2025 after retiring in 2019, achieving notable success including two downhill victories.

Vonn before a new knee operation and long-term rehabilitation

Lindsey Vonn, ameriška alpska smučarka, je prišla na OI v Italijo s poškodbami kolenskih križnih vezi, ki jih je utrpela na tekmi svetovnega pokala v Crans Montani v Švici, tik pred začetkom iger. Nesreča 8. februara je bila usodna, saj je povzročila utesnitveni sindrom in zahtevала možnost amputacije. Po štirih operacijah in tednu v bolnišnici je bila evakuirana v ZDA. Vonnova je prvačila kariero leta 2019, vendar je v decembru 2024 ponovno nastopila in dosegla 84. zmago v karieri. Trenutno se rehabilitira, ima še eno operacijo in dolgo rehabilitacijo, vendar se počuti dobro in je hvaležna za to.
