Lindsey Vonn won her Downhill Gold Medal last Wednesday in Vancouver.
But this girl is not only a great athlete, she is also very sexy.
Lindsey Vonn's Olympics ended after she skied out of the women's slalom, her last event in Vancouver.
Vonn straddled a gate in the first half of her run Friday. She could not correct her line after her right, outside ski slid away coming out of a left-hand turn.
"I went out there fighting and it just wasn't my day," said Vonn, who won two medals at the Games but failed to finish three of five races.
She won her gold medal as an overwhelming favorite in her signature downhill event, and took the bronze in the super-G.
"I'm totally satisfied with everything I have done here. I have the gold medal I came here for," Vonn said.
Her biggest rival and best friend, Maria Riesch of Germany, won gold in the slalom.
CURLING: Sweden went the distance in capturing another gold medal in Olympic women's curling, beating a Canadian team cheered by a cowbell-clanging crowd. Anette Norberg played through the din, nailing the last shot to give her team a 7-6 victory in an extra 11th end. Sweden defended its gold medal from Torino four years ago, defeating Cheryl Bernard's Canadian foursome before a sellout crowd of 5,600. ... In its curling debut, China's women's team won the bronze, beating Switzerland, 12-6, in a shortened eight-end match.
MEN'S PURSUIT: Sven Kramer and his Dutch pursuit team failed to earn a spot in the gold-medal race. The overwhelming favorites lost to a U.S. team led by Chad Hedrick.
SNOWBOARDING: With rain turning the event into hydroplaning, Nicolien Sauerbreij of the Netherlands won the women's parallel giant slalom race.
