Lindsey Vonn's head coach says no date has been set for the injured skier's return to the World Cup, and that she might not compete at all before the Sochi Olympics in February. Vonn flew back to Vail, Colo., last week after hurting her surgically repaired right knee at a downhill race in France. ''Her knee was swollen again after Val d'Isere,'' U.S. women's head coach Alex Hoedlmoser told The Associated Press. ''She is working with the guys from (her own team) Red Bull and the medical staff to get that under control.'' Hoedlmoser added that ''there is no decision yet if, or where she is going to race ahead of the Olympics.'' Vonn needed surgery in February to reconstruct two knee ligaments after a crash in super-G at the world championships, and then partially re-tore one of them in November.
