Alpine Skiing-Vonn Can Win a Medal, Says Coach Svindal

On Feb. 6, 2026, Lindsey Vonn, three-time Olympic medalist, completed a downhill training run at the Tofane Alpine Skiing Centre in Cortina, finishing in 1:40.33 to applause.
Vonn suffered a serious knee injury and related damage, tearing her ACL and sustaining bone bruising and meniscus damage on January 30, 2026, in Crans-Montana, Switzerland, after winning two recent World Cup downhills to reach 84 career wins.
After thick fog interrupted the session, training was paused for a fog delay of about an hour before Germany's Emma Aicher returned and Federica Brignone said the course was in good shape.
After finishing the run, Lindsey Vonn posted Instagram photos, wearing a heavy knee brace and captioning `Normal downhill day & Delayed.`
Sunday's women's downhill medal race is set for 5:30 a.m. ET, with the athlete attempting a comeback after two recent World Cup downhill wins and 84 career victories.
