Lindsey Vonn hopes that people would ask her this 1 simple question.

Olympic champion Lindsey Vonn has come out to say that she frequently wishes people would pose one more complex question instead of dwelling on her performance and injuries over the years only.

Vonn states that the question that she considers the most important revolves around her own happiness, which provides her with a glimpse into her life outside of skiing and a chance to have more meaningful, more genuine discussions with fans and media.

Vonn has undergone rigorous scrutiny, injuries and pressure by the media, but in the course of her illustrious career, she has realized that emotional wellbeing of an athlete is equally important as wins are.

Her point of view brings out the human face of elite sport, to remind viewers that behind any champion is a complex human being whose life is much more than medals, records and historic achievements won.
