Olympic downhill scheduled for Sunday at Cortina
Lindsey Vonn said she is “confident” she can compete at the Milano Cortina Winter Games despite revealing she has been managing a ruptured ACL, maintaining that her Olympic comeback remains on track after a crash last week raised fresh doubts over her participation.
Speaking on Tuesday, the 41-year-old American said she was approaching the final decision cautiously but remained focused on lining up for the downhill in Cortina d’Ampezzo, where the Olympic women’s alpine programme opens Sunday.
