Lindsey Vonn hangs ’em up
Following a series of injuries and setbacks, Lindsey Vonn made it official that she would retire from competitive downhill racing after the 2019 World Championships in Sweden. On February 10, 2019, with her record sixth world championship medal (bronze) in hand, the legend finally called it a career. And what a career it was—when you think of US alpine skiing greatness, it’s hard not to imagine Vonn…and it doesn’t matter if we’re talking men’s or women’s. She has been that incredible.
