LA THUILE, Italy (AP) — Apologizing for a gaffe on social media, Lindsey Vonn had little to celebrate after clinching a record 20th World Cup crystal globe title and surpassing Swedish great Ingemar Stenmark on Saturday.
A day earlier, Vonn posted a video of an angry outburst in which she destroyed her bindings with a hammer following a race where one ski detached.
After erasing the post from her Facebook page, Vonn spent the night drafting an apology with her Los Angeles-based agent and called Johan Eliasch, chairman of the Head group that supplies the American's equipment.
