Olympic Gold Medalist Lyndsey Vonn broke her right arm while skiing on Thursday at Colorado’s Copper Mountain.
Vonn took to Facebook to share the news saying, “Unfortunately, yesterday I crashed while training in Copper and severely fractured the humerus bone in my right arm. I had successful surgery last night in Vail and everyone took great care of me,” she wrote.

“While I am beyond frustrated by this latest setback, at least my knees are ok and I will return to the slopes as soon as possible, as I always do! Thank you for the continued love and support, it means so much to me,” she continued.
Vonn withdrew from the World Cup competition last season after she suffered a hairline knee fracture. Tiger Woods‘ ex seems to be a pro at breaking bones and says this isn’t going to set her back.
