Lindsey Vonn's podium streak continues.
Vonn was third in the downhill in Tarvisio, Italy, on Saturday, Jan. 17. She has made the podium in every downhill race this season, and been in the top three in six of her first seven races. The only time she's finished off the podium was in her first super-G, when she was fourth.
Even for Vonn, one of the greatest skiers in history, it's a remarkable run. She is 41, and skiing with a partial knee replacement, yet is more than holding her own against the younger competition.
Vonn's time of 1:46.54 was 0.26 seconds behind winner Nicol Delago of Italy. Germany's Kira Weidle-Winkelmann was second, just 0.06 seconds ahead of Vonn.
Breezy Johnson joined Vonn in the top 10, tying for sixth place. Jackie Wiles (13th), Allison Mollin (19th) and Haley Cutler (23rd) also were in the top 25.
