They don’t call her the “Iron Woman” for nothing. Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn, 41, announced Tuesday that she’ll still be competing in the Winter Olympics — despite sustaining an ACL injury last week. The decorated alpine racer will attempt her fifth Winter Games after crashing at a World Cup downhill event in Switzerland and fully rupturing the ACL in her left knee, bruising her bone and suffering meniscal damage.
