Italy

Utah is eight years away from hosting the Winter Games again. While some of the organizers were here for 2002, there was still plenty to learn from how Italy did things this year.

The past Olympic week in Italy saw opinions on U.S. international diplomacy and domestic politics mixed liberally into the sports. Cox says "we care deeply about the political situation that is happening in the United States right now.”

Vonn says she sustained a "complex tibia fracture that is currently stable but will require multiple surgeries to fix properly” after her devastating crash in the Olympic downhill.

Vonn’s big comeback from retirement was jeopardized after she crashed in a downhill in Crans-Montana, Switzerland. But that won’t keep her from racing in the Winter Olympics, she says.
