Lindsey Vonn Shares Impressions from Training at Corralco, Chile
Lindsey Vonn is back on snow in Chile and this time she has brought along her new coach and equipment strategist Aksel Lund Svindal. The retired Norwegian ski racer joined the 40-year-old American ski racing legend at Centro de Ski Corralco. Vonn announced in August this year, that Lund will join her in the lead-up to the 2026 Milan-Cortina Olympics.
Vonn, who underwent a full knee replacement in April 2024, stunned the ski racing world when she announced her return to competition just six months later for the 2024-25 World Cup season. She was able to jump straight back into the World Cup circuit thanks to the introduction of a wildcard system by the International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS), and crowned her comeback season with a podium finish when she placed second at the World Cup finals in Sun Valley, Idaho.
With her sights now set firmly on the 2026 Milan-Cortina Olympics, she has tapped Svindal—her contemporary, long-time friend, and fellow Olympic champion—to bring his expertise into her corner. The pair’s careers ran on parallel tracks for more than a decade. Both claimed their first Overall World Cup titles in the 2007-08 season, both won Super-G season titles in 2011-12, and both captured Olympic gold medals. Coincidentally, each retired midseason in 2019 due to chronic knee injuries—only for Vonn to stage her improbable comeback after surgery.
At Corralco, located in southern Chile’s Araucanía region with slopes rising to nearly 2,400 meters (7,824 feet), Vonn is putting in long training blocks to build confidence and volume before the World Cup season begins in just a few weeks. The resort, known for its consistent snow and wide training lanes, has become a hub for national teams during the Southern Hemisphere’s winter. After a slow start to the season, South American ski resorts have seen significant snowfalls in September.
Vonn has certainly been committed with her training—she has been to Chile and New Zealand prior to this camp in Corralco. The athlete also shared a video today of massive bruising on her arm, presumably from hitting the Giant Slalom gates in training, commenting “Signs of a good week of training,” on her post.
Training with Svindal for a second Chile camp shows just how determined Vonn is to make it to her fifth Olympics. The U.S. ski racer has competed in 2002, 2006, 2010, and 2018. She missed the 2014 Winter Games due to an injury. A return to the Olympics at 41–her birthday is just a couple of weeks away—would be the crowning achievement to her comeback.

Djokovic learns fate in new home as Sabalenka addresses behaviour
Express Sport brings you the latest tennis news from the Paris Masters.
We’re reaching the business end of the Paris Masters, as eight players become four in the French capital. Jannik Sinner is the overwhelming favourite to lift the trophy after Carlos Alcaraz was dumped out by Cameron Norrie in the Spaniard’s opening match. Norrie was then beaten by Valentin Vacherot, whose amazing 10-match winning streak at Masters 1000 level came to an end when he lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Canadian star Auger-Aliassime will face Alexander Bublik in the semis. Bublik defeated Alex de Minaur, who is among those to have already qualified for the year-end ATP Finals. Sinner is through to his first Paris Masters semi-final after beating Ben Shelton. He’ll face defending champion Alexander Zverev, who survived a tough match against Daniil Medvedev.
Novak Djokovic is not involved in the Paris Masters, having decided to skip the event for the second year in a row, but he has learned his fate in the draw of next week’s ATP 250 in Athens. And over in Riyadh, the WTA Finals are about to get underway.
