After hours of uncertainty, the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Team confirmed Vonn is in stable condition and receiving care from both American and Italian medical specialists. Her sister, Karin Kildow, described the moment as frightening, saying the family had limited information initially but remained hopeful as doctors evaluated her condition.
Reports later confirmed Vonn is being treated in Cortina rather than transferred to a larger hospital in Verona, easing earlier fears that her injuries might be more severe. While the crash ended her Olympic hopes, early signs suggest her condition is more stable than first feared.
