On Tuesday, U.S. champion alpine ski racer Lindsey Vonn lost her No. 1 world ranking to Germany's Maria Riesch for the first time.
Vonn finished seventh in the World Cup giant slalom in Semmering, Australia, and was overtaken by Riesch.
The question is, has Vonn lost her edge?
A champion skiier who has 36 World Cup wins, Vonn is the most successful American female in ski racing history.
But a seventh place finish in the giant slalom has to worry her; she's been so dominant for so long she was bound to have trouble but does this signify a decline for Vonn?
We shall see in the coming months.
Will Vonn regain her No. 1 ranking?
