Best of gold-medal skiing legend Lindsey Vonn

At 41, Lindsey Vonn is once again delivering efforts that made her one of the greats in skiing lore.

Philip Rivers has nothing on Lindsey Vonn. The USA skiing legend retired in 2019 and took almost six years away from the slopes before deciding to return last year. The goal is to make it to the Olympics in Italy in 2026. Vonn is well on her way to regaining the form that made her one of the most iconic skiers in the sport's history. The 41-year-old recently won a World Cup downhill race in St. Moritz, Switzerland, making her the oldest winner of such an event. The next day she finished second in another downhill event. The competition had best beware because when Vonn sets her mind to something on the snow, she often comes away with a victory.
