MERIBEL, France (AP) – Another day of skiing, another crystal globe for Lindsey Vonn.

And she’s expecting more.

“I foresee next year as hopefully even better,” said the 30-year-old American, who claimed the season-long super-G title at the World Cup finals on Thursday, two years after a career-threatening knee injury.

“It’s going to be fun to have a normal preparation. I only got about five days of downhill training and about 20 days of ski training. I had a lot of races this season where I wasn’t that confident, in some situations I lacked the training.”

Vonn won the final super-G of the season on Thursday and with it her 19th crystal globe trophy – equaling the record of Swedish great Ingemar Stenmark. She beat Anna Fenninger of Austria and Tina Maze of Slovenia in Thursday’s race to claim the discipline title, one day after winning the downhill title.
