PYEONGCHANG, South Korea_After an eight-year absence from the Olympics, Lindsey Vonn's return ended in disappointment Saturday.
Vonn, one of the most successful Alpine skiers in history, finished tied for sixth in the super-G at the Pyeongchang Olympics.
"It didn't quite turn out the way I hoped," she said.
High winds delayed the race at the Jeongseon Alpine Center for an hour. Vonn started first, but went too wide on a turn near the end of the run in a mistake that likely kept her off the podium.
Vonn will compete in the downhill, her best event, Wednesday.
Ester Ledecka of the Czech Republic claimed the gold medal with a stunning run to finish on the podium for the first time in her career.
