True story. Just happened. Retired skier comes back from retirement after two knee replacements, wins gold at 41.

Per Grok:
  • Lindsey Vonn's victory marks her 83rd World Cup win and first downhill since 2018, achieved at age 41 in St. Moritz, Switzerland, on December 12, 2025, after a five-year retirement and 2022 knee surgery with titanium implants.
  • The post's video shows Vonn on the podium, visibly emotional with tears and smiles amid fellow medalists, highlighting her raw joy and the event's high-stakes atmosphere under Audi FIS branding.
  • Vonn's comeback challenges age-related decline in elite skiing, supported by studies like a 2020 Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy review showing surgical advancements enable prolonged careers for athletes over 40.
