CORTINA D’AMPEZZO, Italy - Another day in Cortina, another record for Lindsey Vonn.
The American won a World Cup super-G Sunday for her 11th career victory in Cortina, breaking the resort record of retired Austrian standout Renate Goetschl.
“It’s incredible to think back to when I was racing with Renate — it seemed like she won every single race in Cortina and she seemed unbeatable,” Vonn said. “And to have surpassed her now it’s kind of hard to process all of these records. It’s hard to imagine having more success than my idols.”
By winning a downhill on Saturday, Vonn eclipsed Annemarie Moser-Proell’s mark of 36 career wins in skiing’s marquee event.
