Lindsey Vonn’s fifth and final Olympics ended in the one way she dreaded most of all. Moments into her run in the women’s downhill, Vonn’s legs failed her as she came over a roll after passing the third gate.She twisted and crashed sideways to the ground, and after a first stunned burst of shouts and screams, the atmosphere around the Olimpia delle Tofane course fell deadly quiet while the medical team gathered around her. Fifteen minutes later, Vonn was airlifted from the mountain to hospital for treatment.Vonn’s friend and teammate Breezy Johnson, who won the gold, was watching from the leader’s seat at the time, and covered her eyes because she couldn’t bring herself to watch. “It’s tragic, but it’s ski racing I’m afraid,’ said Johan Eliasch, chairman of the international skiing federation. “I can only say thank you for what she [Vonn] has done for our sport, because this race has been the talk of the Games.”
As the helicopter carrying Vonn flew overhead, the crowd around the mountain broke into applause for her, but the disruption to the race was difficult for the competitors lining up behind her – including the home favourite, Sofia Goggia.
