Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy: Lindsey Vonn crashed out of the downhill final at the Winter Olympics on Sunday, failing in her dream of a medal in her favoured discipline at Milan-Cortina.
American star Vonn had been trying to claim her fourth Olympic medal despite suffering a ruptured anterior cruciate just over a week ago but her race ended early and her cries of pain could be heard as medical staff surrounded her on the piste.
