Vonn puts off surgery

Lindsey Vonn says she needs another operation on her right knee but hopes to put it off until after the Sochi Olympics. Vonn partially tore one of her reconstructed knee ligaments during a crash in training two weeks ago at Copper Mountain. She is seeing if she can ski without another procedure, but at some point “surgery is going to have to happen.” On a chilly Sunday morning, Vonn took three aggressive runs through the super-G course in her race suit. Afterward, she said her surgically repaired knee feels “really good.” So much so that Vonn will travel to Lake Louise, Alberta, this week for downhill training. – AP
