Lindsey, who captured “Best Female Athlete” already twice (2010 and 2011) is competing in this category against MMA fighter Ronda Rousey, UConn basketball star Breanna Stewart and tennis champion Serena Williams. Lindsey was nominated for “Best Female Athlete” for her great achievements this season: She set a new world record for Women’s World Cup victories and tied Ingemar Stenmark as the only skier to win 19 World Cup crystal globes.
In the “Best Comeback Athlete” category Lindsey is up against New England Patriots’ Rob Gronkowski, Alex Rodriguez of the New York Yankees and Derrick Rose of the Chicago Bulls. Lindsey is nominated for her outstanding comeback to ski racing this season after having had knee injuries.
