美国滑雪名将林赛·沃恩周六宣布,她最新一次腿部手术已成功完成,在意大利冬奥会开幕日高山速降赛中严重摔断左腿后,她已获准返回美国。
“今天的手术非常成功!”41岁的沃恩在社交媒体上写道。这是继2月8日受伤后她经历的第四次手术。
沃恩周五曾表示,她至少还需要两次手术——周六这次,以及返回美国后进行的第二次。
周三,沃恩透露自受伤以来已接受三次手术。她在周六的帖子中称,回到美国后会“提供更多关于伤势的更新和信息”。
这位来自科罗拉多州的奥运老将还回顾了那次摔落:“我没有遗憾。”
“这段征程中的坠落也值了。每当夜晚闭上眼睛,我都不感到后悔,对滑雪的热爱始终未减。”沃恩在帖子中说,“我仍期待着再次站在山顶的那一刻,我会做到的。”
沃恩在奥运会首轮速降比赛开始后几秒即发生严重坠落,当时她虽在上月瑞士阿尔卑斯山世界杯赛中因前交叉韧带撕裂而复出,但仍坚持参赛。
“我愿意为明知有能力做到的事情去冒险、冲刺并牺牲。”沃恩在文中表示,“我宁愿全力以赴时可能摔落,也不愿因未发挥潜能而留下终生遗憾。”
这位三届奥运奖牌得主在冬奥会开幕日的速降赛中受伤,此前她从退役状态复出参赛。撕裂前交叉韧带后,她曾表示依靠护膝仍有信心继续比赛。
“请不要为我难过,”沃恩呼吁道,“我心怀感恩地接纳大家的共情、爱与支持,但请不要流露悲伤或同情。我希望这能给你们力量继续奋斗,因为我正在这么做,也会一直坚持下去,永远如此。”

Lindsey Vonn says “ride was worth the fall” after fourth surgery for broken leg, set to return to U.S.

American skier Lindsey Vonn announced Saturday that her latest surgery was successful, and that she has been cleared to return to the United States after breaking her left leg in a brutal crash last weekend during her opening downhill race at the Winter Olympics in Italy.
“Surgery went well today!” the 41-year-old Vonn wrote on social media. This marks her fourth surgery since the Feb. 8 crash.
Vonn had said Friday she would need at least two more surgeries— the one Saturday and a second after she returns to the U.S.
On Wednesday, Vonn disclosed she had already undergone three surgeries since experiencing the injury. She wrote Saturday that once she’s back in the U.S., she plans on giving “more updates and info about my injury.”
The Olympic veteran from Colorado also reflected on her crash, saying, “I don’t have regrets.”
“The ride was worth the fall. When I close my eyes at night I don’t have regrets and the love I have for skiing remains,” Vonn said in her post. “I am still looking forward to the moment when I can stand on the top of the mountain once more. And I will.”
Vonn crashed just seconds into the first run of her Olympic downhill race. She was competing despite rupturing her left ACL in a different crash during a World Cup race in the Swiss Alps last month.
“I was willing to risk and push and sacrifice for something I knew I was absolutely capable of doing,” Vonn said in the post. “I will always take the risk of crashing while giving it my all, rather than not ski to my potential and have regret.”
The three-time Olympic medalist had come out of retirement to compete in the Milan Cortina Games. After tearing her ACL, she had said she felt confident she could still race with the help of a knee brace.
“Please, don’t be sad,” Vonn said. “Empathy, love and support I welcome with an open heart, but please not sadness or sympathy. I hope instead it gives you strength to keep fighting, because that is what I am doing and that is what I will continue to do. Always.”
