The queen of downhill skiing is well and truly back. Lindsey Vonn raced to a stunningly fast win in a World Cup downhill on Friday to earn her first victory in nearly eight years — and the first in her comeback with titanium implants in her right knee after a five-year retirement.

The 41-year-old U.S. ski great seized the lead by an astonishing 1.16 seconds ahead of Mirjam Puchner of Austria. Even wilder was that Vonn trailed by 0.61 after the first two time checks.
