Lindsey Vonn expressed her thoughts as she revisited her coach, Aksel Lund’s, incredible Winter Olympics victory in PyeongChang. Lund won the victory at the quadrennial games in the men’s downhill and became the oldest champion in the event. Vonn returned to the slopes in late 2024 and shared her decision to come out of retirement after undergoing a partial knee replacement surgery that gave her a solution to her long-standing knee issues. The American athlete slowly went on to progress in her journey as a skier in her comeback season and registered her first World Cup podium in seven years in the Super G in the Alpine skiing season finals. Months later, Lindsey Vonn announced that former skier Aksel Lund would be a part of her coaching team as she aimed to compete at the Winter Olympics. Amid her training sessions, Lindsey Vonn shared that she was watching a documentary series on her coach’s Winter Olympics victory, and she expressed that his grit and determination had left her awestruck. Moreover, Vonn shared that she got emotional while watching him become the downhill champion, which added to her motivation as she continued her preparations for the Winter Olympics. As if I needed anymore motivation @asvindal. I’m not crying. Yeah I’m crying like a baby,” she wrote. This is a developing article and will be updated soon.
