Vonn owes $1.7M in delinquent taxes

Lindsey Vonn, the World Cup and Olympic champion skier, owes more than $1.7 million in delinquent federal taxes, according to The Detroit News.

Vonn, who has several high-profile sponsors, including Red Bull, Under Armour, Procter & Gamble and Rolex, has been going through a divorce from Thomas Vonn, who also served as her coach. The newspaper, citing public records, reported that the IRS filed a $1,705,437 tax lien against Lindsey and Thomas Vonn on April 2 in Nevada.

Vonn told The News she was going to pay up. “It is no secret that my last year off the mountain has been filled with many personal challenges,” she said. “This matter was only recently brought to my attention, and I took immediate and deliberate steps to remedy the situation.”

Lindsey and Thomas Vonn did not sign a prenuptial agreement, The New York Times reported.
