Alpine skiier Lindsey Vonn recently underwent her ninth surgery on November 9th, 2026, to address the lingering effects of a significant crash during the Winter Olympics. This procedure was performed to remove the hardware previously inserted to mend a fractured tibia and to replace a torn ACL.
Prior to her surgery, Vonn attended the LACMA Art+Film Gala in Los Angeles on November 7th, two days before her operation. She marked the occasion with a social media post, noting it was her last time wearing heels for an extended period, highlighting the contrast between her glamorous appearance and the upcoming medical procedure.
Speaking about her recovery a week before the surgery, Vonn acknowledged the cyclical nature of her treatment. She expressed a desire to move past her injuries, even as she prepared to undergo further operations. Vonn's previous surgeries were initially conducted in Treviso, Italy, following the accident, with subsequent procedures taking place in the United States.
