Olympic skiing legend Lindsey Vonn has undergone multiple surgeries after a horrific crash during a downhill race just weeks before the 2026 Winter Olympics. The crash, which occurred in a World Cup event, resulted in a complex tibia fracture. Vonn confirmed she has sustained the fracture but stated her ACL and previous injuries had 'nothing to do' with the accident.

The injury is expected to end her competitive skiing career. Vonn expressed no regrets about her final competitive bid, calling it an 'audacious' attempt to win Olympic gold. This setback represents a significant blow to her legacy and Team USA's hopes for a medal in the women's downhill at Milan-Cortina.
