Lindsey Vonn has fallen while on pace for a podium finish at a World Cup super-G on the course that will host skiing at next year's Milan-Cortina Olympics.

Lindsey Vonn gave the crowd a scare when she crashed out on the third sector of the World Cup super-G race at Cortina but emerged unharmed.

Sitting in the middle of the Cortina course following her second fall in four days at the resort where she once dominated, Lindsey Vonn slammed the snow angrily with her right pole.
