As the world championships in Saalbach-Hinterglemm, Austria, approach, American ski racing legend Lindsey Vonn finds herself grappling with illness on the eve of her comeback at the age of 40. Vonn, a two-time world champion and a holder of eight medals at the prestigious event, expressed her struggles with what she suspects to be a cold or flu.
Vonn, scheduled to compete in the super-G event on Thursday, shared in an audio statement that she began feeling unwell the previous day and is making efforts to recuperate. Despite her condition, Vonn participated in Wednesday's downhill training session, finishing in 29th place.
