Lindsey Vonn is one of the most influential athletes of this generation. After debuting in the sport at the young age of 16, she proved herself to be one of the greatest female skiers ever. With four World overall Championships to her name, she is the second woman to achieve this feat.
Lindsey retired from skiing in 2019 after a medal-winning bout at the World Championships 2019. Even after bidding goodbye to the sport, she still makes the headlines frequently. The reason for such influence is her massive fan following. Lindsey started dating ice hockey star, P.K Subban in 2018.

Their engagement made fans go crazy for any updates on the couple. This interview came as a surprise and was well received by the audience. In the video, Lindsey asked her then-fiancé questions related to their relationship.
They recalled the moment they met for the first time at the ESPYs. Subban joked about their first meeting and said, “she had to do everything in her power to keep her hands off me.”.
