Wasmeier to Vonn: Quantity and praise for the comeback coup!

shock in the ski circus! Lindsey Vonn and Markus Wasmeier, once in the same league, seem to have been secretly getting into their hair. Wasmeier, the German double Olympic champion in 1994, shoots sharply against the American skill: "She said she got an artificial knee", and described this statement as "quite a little fell". In an Interview with Sport1 said that Vonn is actually a "sliding plate" that does not require an invasive operation. "This is something completely different," says Wasmeier, who himself has two artificial hips and knows what is artificial.

On the other hand, after some hesitation, a long preparation was announced from Vonn. On Thursday, despite a "bad cold or flu", as she announced via Instagram, she will start to the Super-G race of the Ski World Cup in Saalbach. Wasmeier not only keeps harsh words ready, but also pays respect for her performance to the Olympic champion: "I would not have thought that it was going so quickly. She really made herself fit," he praised. However, he is also certain: "It is a certificate of poverty for the competition" that a 40-year-old who had already ended her career will continue to perform in the top 10.

Nevertheless, Wasmeier also admits her medal opportunities at the World Cup. Despite everything, the question remains how long this pressure can withstand, especially after she had become a target criticism before she returned to the competitions. Her return is understood as a sign that despite all the adversities, great potential is still slumbering in her, just like the real champions. Vonn goes into the race with a combative attitude, while her former competition and even the greatest in skiing doubt their relevance. A race against time and prejudices begins!
