Thought it started next week.
I haven't really watched it in a long time, as the t.v. stations carrying it here in the u.s. seemed to only focus on u.s., russian and chinese athletes.

I wish Lindsey Vonn would reconsider competing; a torn acl needs lots of time to heal. With a bad crash she could be in serious trouble and suffer consequences that could affect the rest of her life.
