Vonn incensed after losing her ski and World Cup lead to Gut (The Associated Press)
”My ski came off,” she said, underlining her anger with an expletive. Swiss rival Lara Gut won and moved 13 points ahead of Vonn in the overall ranks with the season approaching its conclusion next month. Vonn was the last of the favorites to start and was ahead of Gut at the first checkpoint but then her right ski detached on a sharp turn at about 75 kph (50 mph) and she slid down the course on her hip.
