Lindsey Vonn Suffers Unfortunate Wardrobe Malfunction
Lindsey Vonn suffered an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction on the red carpet at The ESPYs on Wednesday night.
Vonn, 40, returned to professional skiing this year. The legendary U.S. Winter Olympian, who is a four-time skiing World Cup champion, returned after years of devastating injuries. She performed well at the 2025 World Cup and other events.
The Saint Paul, Minnesota native was nominated for Best Comeback at The ESPYs in 2025. Vonn, who was honored to receive the nomination, said she voted for Suni Lee, the U.S. gymnast who battled two rare, incurable kidney diseases to return to competition.
"Can't believe I'm nominated for another ESPY award… wow! Means a lot to me and it's very humbling. I'm nominated for Best Comeback (only 10 years after my first comeback nomination 🤪) which is a category filled with incredible, incredible women," she wrote heading into the competition.
"I voted for Suni Lee as her comeback in Paris was beyond impressive! Voting is still open until the 16th. Will put a link to vote in my bio and stories. 🙏🏻
"But in honor of the nomination I decided to throw it back to some of my favorite ESPY kits and some that I'd rather pretend I never wore haha 🤦🏼♀️ which is your favorite? See you next week ESPYS! ❤️"
Unfortunately, on the red carpet, Vonn suffered an awkward wardrobe malfunction.
Vonn's "risque" dress ended up blowing in the wind, exposing her front section, in an awkward moment.
From the report:
Lindsey Vonn suffered a wardrobe malfunction Wednesday when she attended the 2025 ESPY Awards in Los Angeles.
The American skier, who wore a strapless Elisabetta Franchi gown with a daring slit, seemingly encountered a gust of wind while walking the red carpet, with the fabric of her dress showing more of her underwear.
Fortunately for Vonn, she was aided during the mishap.
Footage of Vonn's mishap can be seen here.
Lee, meanwhile, ended up winning the award.

'As lucky as we could be.' Dodgers' Max Muncy already recovering better than expected
Max Muncy knew he had gotten lucky, after his ugly-looking knee injury earlier this month proved to be nothing more than a bone bruise. But, when doctors explained how close he came to suffering something so much worse, from when Michael A. Taylor slid into his leg at third base on July 2, even Muncy was amazed by the infinitesimal margins. 'If the timing was just a millisecond different either way,' he was told, 'you're probably looking at surgery, and done for a long time.' Instead, barely two weeks removed from having the outside of his knee bent inward on that play, Muncy was out doing early work at Dodger Stadium on Friday afternoon; running in the outfield, playing catch with coaches and performing agility drills in front of trainers without any obvious signs of pain or discomfort. Read more: Dodgers are shut out by Brewers, but Tyler Glasnow shows signs of growth 'We're pleasantly, not surprised, but happy with the spot that I'm in right now,' Muncy said afterward, having also taken swings for the first time since his injury earlier on Friday afternoon. 'It feels great. I'm moving well. Progressing quickly. We're trying to be smart about it, and understand where we're at, and what it's gonna take to get back on the field. But we're in a really good spot … We're kind of right where we think we should be at.' If not, it seems, already a few steps ahead. While Muncy was initially expected to miss roughly six weeks with his left knee bone bruise, manager Dave Roberts struck a more optimistic tone as the Dodgers opened the second half of their season. 'He's in great shape right now,' Roberts said Friday. 'I don't really know a timeline. But I do know … it's going to be a lot sooner than anticipated, which is good for all of us.' Since Muncy — who was one of the hottest hitters in baseball in May and June — got hurt, the Dodgers have not looked like the same offense. In their last 11 games entering Saturday, the club was 3-8, averaging less than three runs per game, and struggling to fill the gaping hole their slugging third baseman has left in the middle of the lineup. Since the start of July, only the penny-pinching Pittsburgh Pirates have been worse than the Dodgers in batting average (.205) and OPS (.594). 'We've still got a lot of good players,' Roberts said. 'But yeah, there's a certain line of demarcation when Max is not in the lineup, what happens to our offense.' The Dodgers' problems, of course, go beyond Muncy's absence. Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman have all been slumping of late (or, in Betts' case, for much of the season). Teoscar Hernández and Tommy Edman have been nowhere near their typical standard since returning from injuries in May. And the depth options the Dodgers have called upon have provided few sparks of life. Still, Muncy figures to be a linchpin in the Dodgers' long-term potential at the plate — with his recovery growing ever-steadily in importance as the rest of the lineup flounders in his wake. 'We got to figure out how to get something going," said outfielder Michael Conforto, chief among the Dodgers' underachievers this season. "Every time we go out there, we expect to score, and that's what we've been doing all year. It's just one of those stretches [where it's] a little bit tougher to get runs in. But, you know, obviously, we have faith in our guys, and some big names in here that made their careers on scoring runs and driving guys in. I think we'll be OK." Muncy, of course, is one of those proven names. And in another fortunate stroke with his recovery, he remains confident his injury won't significantly impact his swing once he does come back. 'If [the injury] was on the inside of the knee, it'd probably be a different story,' Muncy said. 'But just being on the outside, I think it's a good spot, knowing that I don't feel it at all when I'm pushing off on the backside.' Read more: Shaikin: Why the small-market Milwaukee Brewers might be America's team Muncy tested that theory for the first time Friday, taking some light swings in the cage that he said 'felt fine.' 'It's a lot of work, more work than actually playing in the game, which always sucks,' Muncy said of his rehab process. 'But it's that way for a reason … You don't want to have any other injuries that are a side effect from it.' So far, even that latter concern has been quelled, with Muncy noting that 'there's no lingering side effects with it.' 'All in all,' he reiterated, 'we're about as lucky as we could be.'

Colorado Buffaloes football's Shedeur Sanders given $182.5 million expectation on Browns
Colorado Buffaloes football legend Shedeur Sanders is getting gaudy comparisons to the San Francisco 49ers' 2023 Pro Bowl quarterback, Brock Purdy, and he hasn't even played a snap on the Cleveland Browns yet. The Orange and Brown Talk Podcast, comprised of Mary Kay Cabot, Dan Labbe, Scott Patsko, and Ashley Bastock, dubbed Purdy's career Sanders' 'most optimistic yet realistic ceiling.' 'The name Brock Purdy keeps surfacing in discussions about Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders – and for good reason. The comparison offers a tantalizing vision of what could happen when a late-round pick with the right tools lands in the perfect situation,' the reporting troupe wrote. 'On a recent Orange and Brown Talk podcast, host Dan Labbe introduced what might be the most optimistic yet realistic ceiling for the Browns' fifth-round selection.' To reach the status Purdy reached after overcoming Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo in the Bay Area, Sanders will have to overcome the presumed QB1 favorite in training camp, Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, and Dillon Gabriel, the latter of whom is considered readier to start. Easier said than done when operating in last place in the Browns' four-man QB competition. A lot easier said than done, considering the context of Kevin Stefanski giving Sanders an abridged version of the playbook in minicamp. The Purdy comparisons are downright harmful at this point. It's understandable why publications would run with them, but Sanders needs to have Ben DiNucci-level expectations until he proves himself more in Berea.

Wrestler Buff Bagwell Has His Right Leg Amputated Following '5-Year Journey Trying to Fix' His Body After a Car Accident
NEED TO KNOW Buff Bagwell's right leg was recently amputated after he was seriously injured in a car accident in August 2020 The World Champion Wrestling star had undergone "several surgeries" over the past five years, but his leg never healed Bagwell now hopes to return to wrestling following his amputation surgeryMarcus "Buff" Bagwell recently had his leg amputated following a 2020 car accident. In a video posted on YouTube on Friday, July 18, the World Champion Wrestling star, 55, revealed that he had an above-the-knee amputation on his right leg due to injuries he sustained in a car accident in August 2020. Joined by his fiancée Stacy Brown in the video, Bagwell recalled the incident, stating, 'I'd been drinking, but just a few beers … I'm going down the road with a Diet Coke, and I am gone … It was like a dream." 'I remember cars, seeing faces look at me like, 'What are you doing?' ... [and] somehow I got off the wrong exit and I ended up behind the mall, and somehow, that's where it all came to the end, where I drove through a men's and women's bathroom," he continued. Photos from the crash were then shown in the video. A brick building had collapsed, and Bagwell's vehicle could be seen destroyed. Bagwell said the impact of the crash caused the dashboard of his vehicle to hit him 'in my right patellar tendons," which ruined his kneecap. "That started this whole five-year journey of trying to fix my leg,' he further explained, also adding that no one else was hurt or died due to the accident. After the crash, Bagwell said he stayed in the hospital for 'several weeks' and had 39 to 40 surgeries for knee replacements, flap surgeries and extension-mechanism repairs. 'That led me into the deepest, darkest [alcohol] addiction I've ever been in,' he recalled. 'My leg wasn't healing, and so I was super depressed.' Bagwell said he then entered rehab for his drinking in August 2022. Shortly after that, he ran into more health complications, and he had one final right knee extensor mechanism repair surgery, but it 'got infected' and 'led to the amputation.' Despite his injuries, Bagwell credited recent times as 'the best years of my life," stating, "I'm not mad about it by no means."

Bagwell also said in his video that he plans to eventually return to the ring following his surgery. "I'm gonna be able to run, and I'm going to be able to run better. I want to get back in the ring, hit the ropes, have a match," he said. "You don't have to give up with something like this ... I'm going to show the world that you can have just as good a life with or without a leg." Read the original article on People
