Lindsey Vonn is ready to rejoin the World Cup circuit
Skier Lindsey Vonn is seen after a training run for the FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup on the Rettenbach glacier, in Solden, Austria, on Oct. 23.
Lindsey Vonn has declared herself fully recovered from yet another injury and eager to resume racing later this month.
The American skier broke her ankle during a training run in New Zealand earlier this year and missed the World Cup opener in Austria.
She is scheduled to make her season debut in Aspen, Colo.
“I have a really good feeling about this season,” she told the Associated Press. “This is going to be a really good year.”
Vonn, who holds the career record for victories on the World Cup circuit and is a four-time overall champion, previously battled back from multiple knee injuries.
At 30, she plans to focus on the downhill and super-G this season.
