By the time her career is over, Lindsey Vonn may likely be the best all-around female alpine skier in US history. She won her first World Championship today. In 2008, she won the FIS World Cup overall title and the downhill title. She has 18 career World Cup race victories (11 downhill, 3 super G, 2 giant slalom, 2 slalom), just one behind Tamara McKinney, who excelled in the slalom and giant slalom.

And she's kinda hot too.

Is that the name of the famous Bollywood skier?

id alpine her ski's any day

Her edges are so sharp, they'd cut your head off.

Vonn won another gold at the World Championships on Sunday in Val d'Isere, this time in the downhill (her 1st gold was in super G).

In related news, uber-chump Bode Miller missed a gate on his second run and blew a golden chance to win the Super-combined. Bode Miller wastes talent like Rush Limbaugh wastes words.

Any excuse to bring this back to everyone's attention....

ARE, Sweden -- Lindsey Vonn became the first American woman to win two World Cup overall titles after her victory Wednesday in the last downhill of the season.

The American completed the 1.6-mile Olympia course at the World Cup finals in 1 minute, 42.49 seconds after posting the fastest splits all the way down.

Vonn sets the record for WC points in a season. She's aiming for the Herminator's record of 2,000 pts. If she scores 12th or higher in today's Super G final, she gets it.

She is just a great all-around skier, with overall WC titles, 5 downhill, 4 super G, and 3 combined. She is arguably the greatest women's skier of all time.
