MERIBEL, France (AP) — Another day of skiing, another crystal globe for Lindsey Vonn.
And she’s expecting more.
«I foresee next year as hopefully even better,» said the 30-year-old American, who claimed the season-long super-G title at the World Cup finals on Thursday, two years after a career-threatening knee injury.
Vonn won the final super-G of the season on Thursday and with it her 19th crystal globe trophy — equaling the record of Swedish great Ingemar Stenmark. She beat Anna Fenninger of Austria and Tina Maze of Slovenia in Thursday’s race to claim the discipline title, one day after winning the downhill title.
Her seven career downhill titles and 67 race wins are women’s records in Alpine skiing.
Otro dia de Ski y otro Crystal Globe para Lindsey Vonn y quiere mas…Espero que el proximo año sea mejor, dijo la americana de 30 años, quien logro su segundo Super G de temporada en la final mundial disputada hoy en Meribel, Francia..dos años despues de que una operacion de rodilla pusiera en peligro su carrera..
Vonn gano la final del Super G, que le permite acumular 19 trofeos Crystal Globe, igualando el récord de la Sueca Ingmar Stenmarck. Vonn supero a la Austriaca Anna Menninger y a la Slovena Tina Maze, para acumular 67 triunfos en competencias individuales y un nuevo titulo de descenso…todo un record mundial.
