Lindsey Vonn grabs 70th World Cup win with weekend sweep

Lindsey Vonn completed a weekend sweep of races in Lake Louise, Alberta, and reached 70 career World Cup wins with a historically dominant super-G performance Sunday.

Vonn prevailed on her favorite course, where she’s now won 18 times in 41 starts, by 1.32 seconds. It’s the largest margin of victory in a women’s World Cup super-G anywhere since March 7, 1997, according to ski-db.com.

Austrians Tamara Tippler and Cornelia Huetter were second and third.

Vonn, the 2010 Olympic downhill champion, also grabbed downhills Friday and Saturday in Lake Louise.
