CORTINA D’AMPEZZO, Italy (AP) \u2014 Lindsey Vonn<\/a>, racing on a badly injured left knee, crashed early in the Olympic downhill Sunday and stayed down on the ground as the 41-year-old American received medical attention.<\/p>\n

Vonn lost control over the opening traverse after cutting the line too tight and was spun around. The race was put on hold as she received treatment. <\/p>\n

All eyes were on Vonn, the feel-good story heading into the Olympics. She returned to elite ski racing last season after nearly six years away from the circuit. On a partial titanium knee replacement<\/a> in her right knee, too. Her surgery in April 2024 left her feeling so good that she decided to give it a go for another Olympics appearance.<\/p>\n
