When Dwayne was all praises for Lindsey Vonn
We’re all familiar with how many times Vonn has gotten injured. Each time she got injured, she made a comeback until she couldn’t. After permanently damaging her right knee, Vonn had to retire from the sport she loved. Professional athletes are often aware of each other’s battles. Similarly, Johnson was aware of what Vonn had been through. This instilled in Dwyane’s heart massive respect and adoration for the alpine skier.
Back in the year 2019, Johnson collaborated with Under Armour to create ‘Project Rock.’ It is a range of sportswear apparel and accessories. To celebrate the launch, Johnson announced the first global ambassador over social media. And it was none other than his close friend Lindsey Vonn, who he was all praises for.

A woman who I’ve known, admired and respected over the years.
