PYEONGCHANG, South Korea — Lindsey Vonn had the third-fastest downhill time Wednesday at the Olympics with several more skiers left to race.

Sofia Goggia of Italy was the leader at 1:39.22; Ragnhild Mowinickel of Norway was second at 1:39.31. Vonn clocked 1:39.69.

The expected contenders had finished.

The women’s downhill was considered to be Vonn’s best and last chance to win a gold medal at the 2018 Winter Olympics.

She finished sixth in the Super-G Saturday and is not expected to medal Thursday in the combined, her last individual event of the Games.
