Unable to complete a race on Sunday because of injuries to both knees, a tearful Lindsey Vonn announced she was considering an immediate retirement from ski racing.
But on Wednesday, Vonn said she hoped she could overcome her injuries and continue racing.
“I am taking things day by day, and we will see what happens,” Vonn wrote on her Instagram account. “I know that I might not get the ending to my career that I had hoped for, but if there is a chance, I will take it.”
Last weekend in Italy, in her first races since injuring her left knee in a November training session, Vonn, who has already had several surgeries on her right knee, struggled to find her form.
