Lindsey Vaughn won the bronze medal at the most famous Olympians in the United States Wednesday, becoming the oldest female medal winner in alpine skiing in alpine skiing.

Onin, 33, surpassed Austria's Michela Dorffemaster, whose 33th birthday was just ashamed when he won Lotus and Super-G in the Turin Olympics in 2006.

Since her grandfather died in November, the race for Vone is particularly emotional.

"I wanted him to win a lot, but I still think he made him proud" and the emotional van NBC says. "Our family never gave up, I never gave up." I worked hard and I was very proud of this medal, and he also knew me a lot. "

Wolf wears her first letters "DK" as a tribute to her helmet.

"It's sad, this is my last downhill side." I said, "I am very happy, I like what I do," she says. "My body probably can not take another year."

Italy's Sophia Goggia Jonesen won the women's lower level in the Alpine Center. Wonn is hopeful with a high end before achieving a surprisingly silver medal at the 19th racquered Roundhill Mankekel of Norway.

And then again, full of surprises will look the norm on this hill. He was charged late last week in the pack to take over the Czech Republic's Erté Ledega super-title. She crossed down the downhill to go back to the snowboarding field and qualified for the parallel giant slalom Thursday.

Goggia stopped for a minute and 39.22 seconds for a mangekel to 0.09 seconds. 0.47 seconds behind Vogen Goggia.

This particular track is in accordance with Goggia aggressive skiing. She also chased a vault in March to defeat the only World Cup to compete on the hill.

Goggia is at the top, but another speed is found at the bottom. Wan was not able to do it when she had two spots later.

It is Gogulia's first gold or world championships in an Olympics. She has four World Cup wins.

On the night before the race, she told her Twitter account: "I'm going to get out of the opening gate what will happen in my opening Olympic metal race tomorrow, and I'm so grateful to share this race with wonderful teammates. I know, and I also hoped that ... it was better than me Wow ... but there is only one thing that I can guarantee; I will give everything tomorrow, count on it. "

Mikeyla Sheffrin did not make a downfall due to the Olympic program that changed. Alpine was mobilized on Thursday one day, and was chosen not to participate in the Shiffrine Back-to-Back Days, but was dropped for the Downhill race. Combined with a run of a downhill and slalom, adds her special discipline.

In social media, she says: "It's so fun! So just a little dummy I'm not skiing it today. We have 4 girls who are ready to hammer down and the reason I can not wait to see!"
