Lindsey Vonn’s sensational return to the Alpine World Ski Championships ended in disappointment on Thursday after the 40-year-old crashed out of the super-G event.

Lindsey Vonn has completed pre-race inspection and is planning on competing in the super-G at the Alpine skiing world championships despite feeling sick with “a cold or the flu.”

Lindsey Vonn did not finish her Thursday Super-G run at the Alpine World Ski Championships in Austria after getting her arm hooked on a gate. It was Vonn's first world championship run since 2019. Vonn was in the midst of her run when she cut a turn too tightly and caught her right arm on a gate.

Lindsey Vonn was unable to finish Thursday's super-G due to a right shoulder injury sustained when she hooked a gate early in her run in Saalbach-Hinterglemm, Austria. Vonn, 40, was making her first appearance at the Alpine skiing world championships in six years.
