Lindsey Vonn goes through surgeries like she skies down the slopes – like a champion. In a video recently uploaded on social media, retired skiing expert Lindsey Vonn can be seen donning the skis again. The Olympian made an appearance at a renowned TV show where she was seen for the first time in her gear after recovering from her surgery.

The 38-year-old went under the knife for a second time to treat knee issues. After another grueling surgery, however, the resilient Vonn took up another skiing challenge. However, this time she faced a very unlikely competition.

Vonn’s fans were worried about their favorite skiing star because of the multiple knee surgeries she had to go through. Vonn has shared that she will require another surgery. However, seeing her back in her gear was a breath of fresh air for her fans and the skiing community. While nobody was ready to witness this unlikely challenge, it left fans wanting more.

The video uploaded on Instagram shows Vonn going up against none other than retired NFL star turned TV show host Eli Manning at the Eli Manning Show. The 42-year-old retired quarterback held a powerful presence on the football field and has won the Super Bowl twice with his team New York Giants. Manning and Vonn can be seen racing each other as Manning tries to outclass Lindsey in her own game.
