Lindsey Vonn gave the crowd a scare when she crashed out on the third sector of the World Cup super-G race at Cortina but emerged unharmed.

Sitting in the middle of the Cortina course following her second fall in four days at the resort where she once dominated, Lindsey Vonn slammed the snow angrily with her right pole.Then she got up and skied down to the finish — fortunate to have come away mostly unscathed again — and ready to assess the most difficult weekend of her comeback at age 40 with a new titanium knee following nearly six years of retirement.
