In an interview with BBC's Ski Sunday, Lindsey Vonn made her feelings known about her comeback to the sport after almost six years. The athlete retired after having a severe knee injury for which she had to undergo surgery. However, in the interview, the skier said that she never expected she would be back to the sport and race on challenging hills like St. Anton.

"Even when I said I was going to race again, I didn't even expect to race in St Anton, because I thought there would be no way I'd be ready to race there. It's such a challenging hill. I've definitely far exceeded my expectations by a long shot," said Lindsey Vonn.

The 40-year-old was also criticized by some for her comeback. Reflecting on this, she said:

"I don't know why my comeback was such a big problem. I'm not hurting anyone doing what I'm doing. I think my answer was pretty clear last weekend. There was one apology, publicly, on a podcast. But my phone didn't ring and I don't accept anything other than a phone call because what they said about me is totally unacceptable and disrespectful."

Lindsey Vonn further spoke about how she took care of her knee during her retirement and shared the details about the recovery process.
