Lindsey Vonn crashed in her final downhill race before the Winter Olympics and injured her left knee. But the 41-year-old U.S. ski star says her "Olympic dream is not over” just a week before the Milan Cortina Winter Games. Vonn lost control when landing a jump in a World Cup race and ended up tangled in the safety nets. She eventually got up after receiving medical attention and walked away gingerly, taking weight off her left knee and using her poles to steady herself. She then clicked her skis back on but stopped to check her left knee. The race was later canceled after three of the first six racers crashed.
