LAKE LOUISE, Alta. -- Lindsey Vonn needs the confidence that Lake Louise gives her more than ever. The U.S. ski star has won a record 14 World Cup ski races at the Alberta resort, but Vonn wasnt yet certain after Wednesdays training run shes ready to race at Lake Louise this year. Downhill races are scheduled for Friday and Saturday followed by a super-G on Sunday. The reigning Olympic womens downhill champion completed her first official training run for a World Cup race since crashing and tearing ligaments in her right knee at the world championships in February. Vonn then partially tore one of those reconstructed ligaments while training in Copper Mountain, Colo., two weeks ago. So the 29-year-old admitted feeling nervous in the start hut Wednesday in a place shes so dominant that its nicknamed "Lake Lindsey." "Of course a little bit nervous," Vonn said. "Really happy to be back. First training run, first kind of real race situation since February, so its been a long time and Im really happy." "Knee feels good, feels stable and just kind of play it by ear tomorrow and make a decision on the race." Carolina Ruiz Castillo of Spain was fastest in training in one minute 57.40 seconds, followed by Germanys Maria Hoefl-Riesch and Slovenias Tina Maze in third. Vonn was 2.13 seconds back of Castillo in 22nd. Larisa Yurkiw of Owen Sound, Ont., is the lone Canadian and was 25th. Vonn appeared to wear a brace on her right knee Wednesday.

Another training run is scheduled for Thursday. "The biggest thing is making sure theres no swelling so the quad can react appropriately and fire appropriately," Vonn said. Because of the setback in her knee, Vonn was forced to sit out last weekends World Cup races in Beaver Creek, Colo.

"Sochi is obviously quite a ways away, so Im trying to stay focused and focus on my knee and get the confidence back." Vonn and golf star Tiger Woods revealed earlier this year they were in a relationship. Vonn accompanied Woods to tournaments during the summer, but he is not in Lake Louise. Woods is hosting the Northwestern Mutual World Challenge in Thousand Oaks, Calif., and participated in the pro am Wednesday. Vonn has races through trials and tribulations to some of her victories at Lake Louise, which gives her an aura of invincibility at the resort. Shes achieved a "Lake Louise hat trick", which is winning both downhills and the super-G, each of the last two years. Including her super-G win in 2010, shes won a record seven straight World Cup races. Vonn won the first of her two downhills last year by 1.73 seconds, which is a gaudy margin considering tenths of seconds separate racers. She did this despite arriving in Alberta drained of energy from a stomach ailment that hospitalized her for two nights earlier that month. She was also under considerable pressure to win after shed asked the world governing body of the sport to let her compete in the mens World Cup on the same mountain. FIS denied her request.

She went down on her left hip entering a section of the course named Fall Away, but made an impressive recovery on the slopes face. Vonn finished second in that downhill to Hoefl-Riesch. In 2009, Vonn crossed the finish line with blood dribbling from her mouth. Her knee connected with her chin during the race, yet Vonn still won the first of her two downhills that year. "Im so confident on this hill and I felt like this was the perfect place for me to come back," Vonn said. "Of course, I would have liked to come back at Beaver Creek, but it didnt work out. "Hopefully this weekend will be good, but I have to play by it by ear and make a decision Thursday on whether I start competing on Friday." ' ' '
