Hours after her inspiring 2026 Olympics story came to a harrowing end, Lindsey Vonn quickly went under the knife at a hospital. After crashing 13 seconds into the women’s downhill race and being airlifted off the course on Sunday morning, the three-time Olympic medalist was taken to a clinic in Cortina, Italy and was later transferred to a bigger hospital in Treviso, where surgery was performed on her left leg. The 41-year-old was tended to by a “multidisciplinary team” and “underwent an orthopedic operation to stabilize a fracture reported in her left leg,” as the Ca’ Foncello hospital said in a statement.
