ST. MORITZ, Switzerland — Lindsey Vonn (Vail) will wing her way home to Beaver Creek with a 64th career victory, taking a strong win Sunday over Austria’s Anna Fenninger in an Audi FIS Ski World Cup super G in St. Moritz. Vonn posted a 0.24 second margin for the win, coming just eight days before she will step into the super G starting gate at World Championships.

The St. Moritz super G course presented tough challenges for the athletes. “I was definitely a difficult course today,” said Vonn. “There was a lot of terrain and tricky parts.”

Her win came a day after a big mistake in the downhill dropped her from podium-challenger to 23.

“After a bad day comes a good day,” said Vonn. “Yesterday I risked a lot and it didn’t pay off. Today I risked a lot and it did pay off. I always like to ski at the limit — it’s what’s won me a lot of races and what’s made me crash and go into the nets. That’s the way I ski.”

Julia Mancuso (Squaw Valley) was 16, with Stacey Cook (Mammoth Mountain) 19 and Alice McKennis (Glenwood Springs, Colo.) 27.
