Lindsey Vonn wins a cow at World Cup
What do you get when you win your 61st ski World Cup win? Why, a cow of course!
US downhill specialist Lindsey Vonn was at her very best when she claimed her latest success with a time of 1min 44.47 sec at Val D’Isere in France.
The girlfriend of Tiger Woods was then presented with a calf to commemorate her win.
The bovine certainly made an impression on Vonn, the 30-year-old taking snap after snap with her four-legged prize.
