Lindsey Vonn returned to World Cup skiing on Saturday for the first time in six years, finishing 14th in the super-G.

"This was the perfect start," she told reporters after the race. "Today is just the first step, and I'm not looking for more. Today I really needed to get to the finish. I wanted to have a solid result. And that's exactly what I did."

The 40-year-old, who had been retired, also plans to run the Super-G on Sunday.

"I didn't risk anything with the line," she said.
