Lindsey Vonn is on cloud nine. The 41-year-old alpine skier secured back-to-back podium finishes at a single World Cup meet, a rare feat for a skier of her age.
Vonn finished third in the downhill event at the FIS World Cup meet in Tarvisio, Italy. She had earned a silver medal in the Super-G at the same meet just a day earlier.

Lindsey Vonn’s Track Record at FIS World Cup in 2025–26 Season
Vonn has been impressive since returning to alpine skiing in early 2025. In March 2025, the 41-year-old became the oldest female skier to secure a World Cup podium finish after earning silver at the meet in Sun Valley, Idaho.
Although Vonn did not make a strong impression at the World Championships, she continued competing in World Cup events. She secured a historic victory at the St. Moritz meet, becoming the oldest female skier ever to win an FIS World Cup event. She followed that performance with another World Cup victory at the Zauchensee meet earlier this year.
