I read a long article about her in Yhe New Yorker. She’s as mentally tough as Michael Jordan or Tiger Woods.

Assuming (risky sport) she stays healthy and motivated, she is going to destroy all the women's ski records. She will shatter Vonn's records, in fact already has started to eclipse them. Before she was focusing in slalom and GS, now since moving over to Super G she is taking that by storm and also doing quite well in downhill. By the time her career is over she may well be regarded as the best women skier ever. Sounds like she felt she spread herself too thin in the last Olympics and will be interesting to see if her focus in strictly on slalom and GS at the next Olympics.

One can only hope!
