Lindsey Vonn is going to slide a very high speeds with one titanium knee and a torn ACL on the other...at 41. Absolute insanity.

And another knee injury just a few days ago. News said she was airlifted out during a practice. Wants still to go to opening ceremonies.

Yes, that's the torn ACL I just mentioned. She's racing with it fully torn.

I was sure she was finished when I saw she was airlifted! She’s still trying to compete?! Mad lass!

[–] grue@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

I mean, why not? It's probably not as if she's got some other more important future event to heal up for.

(INB4 she un-retires again for 2030.)
