LOS ANGELES - Reigning Olympic downhill champion Lindsey Vonn's return to racing is on hold after a training crash caused new damage to her surgically repaired right knee. "Lindsey sustained a mild strain to her right knee, a partial tear to her right ACL (anterior cruciate ligament), minor facial abrasions and scapular contusions from her fall," Vonn's publicist Lewis Kay said Wednesday. "She needs to rest for a few days and then will pursue physical therapy and will determine the next time she is able to compete after seeing how she responds to the treatment." Vonn, also a four-time overall World Cup champion and two-time World Champion, had spent the past few months rehabilitating her surgically repaired right knee in anticipation of a return to competition next Friday. –AFP
