“Finding ways to work,” Vaughan wrote in the video.
Vonn underwent multiple leg surgeries after falling just seconds into her competition at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy on February 8. She tore her ACL while skiing. Vaughn was airlifted from the field and did not return home until March 1.
She shared an update with fans on February 23, revealing that her injury was more serious than it looked.
“Dr. Tom Hackett Saved my leg,” Vaughn said. “He saved my leg from amputation. He did what’s called a fasciotomy, where he cut open the sides of my leg and cut it open, so to speak, to let it breathe, and he saved me. “
She continued, “I always talk about everything happening for a reason, but if I hadn’t torn my ACL, Tom wouldn’t have been there. He wouldn’t have been able to save my leg, so I feel very lucky and grateful to him because he had a six-hour surgery on Wednesday to reconstruct it and it went really well.”

“Well…I’ve had the red frontrunner bib from the first race of the season until now, but tomorrow will most likely be my last day as first place,” she wrote on Instagram. “At the start of the season, no one would have believed I would be anywhere near this position. I bet if someone had suggested that, people would have laughed. But winning the championship was my goal… and I was painfully close to achieving it.”
