Lindsey Vonn is one of the greatest skiers to compete in the sport. Vonn got her name penned in the history of US sports when she became the first women’s Downhill Olympics Champion in 2010. Moreover, Vonn has three Olympics medals overall. She began skiing at the age of three when kids are finding their balance to walk.

In almost a two-decade-long career, Vonn has created several records. Before retiring in 2019, she dominated the world of skiing with her incredible performances that made her a legend in sports. Around five years ago, Vonn commented on another legend, Roger Federer, and how long he would extend his domination.

Lindsey Vonn feels ‘no one can beat that’

A sports person knows how sports works. They may not know how to play every sport, but they do know how things work. Similarly, a great Alpine skier knew the potential powerhouse the legendary tennis player possessed. In 2017, Vonn disclosed Roger Federer is the greatest tennis player and her inspiration as well.

While she was asked, “If Roger Federer will give us another Grand Slam, or is that it? And what do you think about his career?” She replied, “He is amazing. He is my hero. I’m very inspired by him.” She further said, “Because he is the greatest of all time. That’s just what happens. Coz no one can beat that,” when she was asked about the reason for his domination.
