There will be no medal for American skier Lindsey Vonn in the Olympic super-G at the Pyeongchang Games. She had a fast run going before a mistake near the bottom cost her valuable time. Tina Weirather of Liechtenstein leads after the opening eight racers. Vonn will have another chance in the downhill. At age 33, she is trying to become the oldest woman to win an Olympic Alpine medal.

“Fighting!”
Yoonas the cutest thing ever.
She is participating as an American, not a democRat.
Nothing would surprise me.

If u go on hating Trump, it will get in the way of your natural God given talents.

Why are these selfish people exempt from flag etiquette?
It is an outrage
Yes! :-)
Ah, I’ll miss her America demonizing speech now.
She is participating as an American, not a democRat.
Eh. No:
From a google search
”Well I hope to represent the people of the United States, not the president,” Vonn told...
I dont want her hurt either, just gone from the news.
More winning!
“runner “
You have the wrong ‘season’!
No medal for the Super-C
Good. Karma is a b!tch & so is Vonn
