Lindsey Vonn has announced that she broke her ankle during a training crash in New Zealand.
Vonn, who claimed a seventh World Cup downhill title ahead of Anna Fenninger back in March, overcame a serious knee injury last season as she also set the all-time women's World Cup win record.
Vonn did not reveal which ankle she had broken but referred to the injury as a minor setback.
The American, who missed the Sochi Olympics after suffering ligament damage to her knee, has previously stated that she plans to compete at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
