VIDEO: Lindsey Vonn Uses Cheese as Medicine

Lindsey Vonn appeared on THE LATE LATE SHOW WITH JAMES CORDEN last night, March 7. James asks Lindsey about video she posted of her knee being wrapped in cheese during a physical therapy session, and Jim Gaffigan is dismayed at her use of such a delicacy. Watch the clip below!

Lindsey Vonn is an American World Cup alpine ski racer on the US Ski Team. She has won four World Cup overall championships-one of only two female skiers to do so, along with Annemarie Moser-Pröll-with three consecutive titles in 2008, 2009, and 2010, plus another in 2012. Vonn won the gold medal in downhill at the 2010 Winter Olympics, the first ever in the event for an American woman. She has also won a record 8 World Cup season titles in the downhill discipline (2008-2013, 2015, 2016), 5 titles in super-G (2009-2012, 2015), and 3 consecutive titles in the combined (2010-2012). In 2016, she won her 20th World Cup crystal globe title, an all-time record among men or women, passing Ingemar Stenmarkof Sweden, who won 19 globes from 1975 to 1984. She has the highest super ranking of all skiers, men or women.

Vonn is one of 6 women to have won World Cup races in all five disciplines of alpine skiing - downhill, super-G, giant slalom, slalom and super combined - and has won 81 World Cup races in her career through February 3, 2018. Her 81 World Cup victories are an all-time women's record, passing Annemarie Moser-Pröll of Austria who had held the record since the 1970s, and only Ingemar Stenmark of Sweden with 86 World Cup victories has more. With her Olympic gold and bronze medals, 2 World Championship gold medals in 2009 (plus three silver medals in 2007 and 2011), and 4 overall World Cup titles, Vonn is the most successful American ski racer and is considered one of the greatest ever.
