GARMISCH-PARTENKIRCHEN, Germany — Lindsey Vonn edged Sofia Goggia in a foretaste of the Pyeongchang Olympic downhill on Saturday, raising her career total to 80 World Cup victories. The American standout beat Goggia by two hundredths of a second as their ongoing rivalry in Alpine skiing’s fastest discipline continued. “I definitely skied aggressively, don’t get me wrong, but I didn’t leave all the cards on the table,” Vonn said. “I hold those extra aces for the Olympics.”It was Vonn’s second straight downhill win after Cortina, Italy, two weeks ago. She had her second career podium by placing third in the race that Vonn won in Cortina two weeks ago.
