Four months after coming out of retirement, Lindsey Vonn returned to the podium on Sunday by earning silver in the super-G at the World Cup Finals in Sun Valley, Idaho. Vonn's podium marks her first since March 2018, and at 40 years old she becomes the oldest woman to ever medal in a World Cup race.

Four months after coming out of retirement, Vonn is back on the podium. Her silver in the super-G at the World Cup finals was her first time on the World Cup podium since March 2018, and puts an emphatic exclamation mark on what was already an unprecedented season.
