Shiffrin comes out on top in head-to-head Super-G with Vonn

The final chapter for U.S. skier Lindsey Vonn in Cortina d’Ampezzo came to an end on Sunday, but it wasn’t the kind of ending she would have chosen.

Vonn was one of many skiers on Sunday who were unable to finish the Super-G course. After making it through the most technically difficult section, Vonn misjudged her line coming out of the shadows, hit a gate and was forced to pull up.

Sunday’s Super-G marked the final time Vonn would race in Cortina d’Ampezzo. With 12 wins over 18 years of competition, Vonn holds the all-time win record at the venue.
