TL;DR

Lindsey Vonn says she’s still in 'survival mode' after a brutal Olympic crash left her with a complex tibia fracture and an ACL tear. She faces one more surgery to remove hardware and replace the ACL, followed by about 18 months of recovery before she could be back to full training. She won’t rush a retirement decision, acknowledging the long, uncertain road ahead after a career that has already included a return from retirement.
