“Welcome to the Team”: Lindsey Vonn Reacts as Dwayne Johnson’s Project Rock Brings In a Powerful Mother

Although she may have left the competitive world of Alpine skiing behind, Lindsey Vonn is an ambitious person and a serial winner. This olympian turned businesswoman has a current net worth of 12 million USD. Vonn has always been a woman to set her own path. So, when she announced her collaboration with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson for his Project Rock campaign, the fans were ecstatic.

The Project Rock is a line of sports gear and apparel by Under Armour in collaboration with Dwayne. The line features an exclusive and sleek design of sportswear and has various other people of the sports world feature. Lindsey herself has collaborated in the past on this endeavor. So, no surprise she was one of the people who welcomed their newest member, a powerlifting athlete. 

Lindsey Vonn welcomes Tamara Walcott to the team with a message.

On the 12th of September, Vonn tweeted her welcome to businesswoman and powerlifting champ Tamara Walcott. Walcott holds several world records, one including the heaviest cumulative lift for bench/squat and press in competition (female) after lifting a total of 737.5 kg (1,620.4 lb) across three compound lifts – the squat, the bench press, and the deadlift,

Tamara is also a single mom and uses her social media handles to share news and motivate women into heavy lifting. In more ways than one, Vonn and Walcott share similarities. Both women have made their niche in cut-throat competitive sports by sheer discipline.

Moreover, Lindsey is one of the defining faces of Project Rock and often uses her official Twitter to give a sneak peek into their launches. So, no doubt it was this 3-time Olympic medal winner who welcomed Tamara. Vonn retweeted the official project rock video with the caption, “Welcome to the team!!!” 

Vonn’s many creative ventures

While most individuals slow down after retirement, it is not so in Lindsey’s face. If anything, she has channeled her inner winner into business. In 2019, she did a documentary called “Lindsey Vonn: The Final Season.” Vonn has also penned her autobiography “Rise” and has toured extensively for it.

When not being creative, she is handling her skiing gear brand, YNIQ. This olympian is overseeing the Lindsey Vonn foundation. This foundation is an organization that helps underprivileged women and girls fulfill their aspirations. Additionally, she also does endorsements with large corporations.
