Lindsey Vonn’s Record-Breaking 63rd Victory Lindsey Vonn cemented her legacy as the best women’s skier in history, winning the super-G on Monday to break Annemarie Moser-Proell’s 35-year-old record of 62 World Cup victories. For her 63rd win, Vonn clocked 1 minute 27.03 seconds down the Olympia delle Tofane course in Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy to finish 0.85 ahead of Austrian Anna Fenninger.
