American skier Lindsey Vonn successfully finished her first Olympic training run on Friday, one week after rupturing her left ACL in a World Cup crash. The 41-year-old, wearing a knee brace, clocked 1:40.33 on the Olympia delle Tofane course in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, finishing 11th amid foggy conditions. Her performance keeps her on track for Sunday's women's downhill medal race.
American skier Ryan Cochran-Siegle posted the fastest time in the opening men's downhill training session ahead of the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics. The session took place on the challenging Stelvio slope in Bormio, Italy, on February 4, 2026. A Norwegian skier was airlifted to hospital after a crash during the run.
