Lindsey Vonn's bid for Olympic glory ended in heartbreak when she crashed early in the women's downhill race at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Games. The 41-year-old American skier sustained a complex tibia fracture in her left leg and was airlifted to a hospital. Despite the injury, Vonn expressed no regrets about competing on a torn ACL.
As preparations intensify for the men's downhill at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Bormio, Italy, American Ryan Cochran-Siegle is drawing inspiration from Bode Miller's legendary 2005 performance on the Stelvio course. The 33-year-old skier posted the fastest time in Wednesday's training run and remains in contention despite a slower Thursday session. Italian skiers dominated the latest training, setting the pace ahead of Saturday's race.
