LINDSEY VONN has undergone a NINTH surgery following her horror crash at the Winter Olympics.
The American skiing legend suffered a horror crash at Milano Cortina 2026 in February.
Vonn, 42, just 14 seconds into her run in the women’s downhill skiing event.
It came just over one week after the Saint-Paul, Minnesota native while competing in Crans-Montana, Switzerland.
In the following month, she has been on a long road to recovery and has now revealed another operation.
Vonn shared the news on Instagram with her 3.6million followers on the social media platform.
She wrote: “Surgery day….
“This day has been looming on my calendar for a while now… and the time has finally come.
“I’ve been nervous and anxious about it…but at the same time excited to hopefully put this behind me.
“This will be my ninth surgery and I’m praying my last.
“There are still things that could change in surgery so we will have to wait and see how it goes but I will keep you posted on my progress when I am out of surgery and recovering.
“I am in the best hands though and thankful for the help of my doctors, physical therapist, nurses and medical staff.
“Thank you again for all of the support over these last nine months.
“It has truly meant the world to me to receive so much love and encouragement.
“As my Mother said, “Today is another great day!”… I hope she’s right.”
Vonn had to be bed-bound for a long time after the shocking crash.
She was able to get back on her feet ahead of her gruelling recovery journey.
