World champion skier Lindsey Vonn shared a photo of her busted right knee and bruised left leg, after she underwent an operation to repair ligaments torn in a crash.

The 28-year-old athlete tore her anterior-cruciate and her medial-collateral knee ligaments, after a much anticipated race between her and Tina Maze of Slovenia in the Alpine Ski World Championships ended with a serious accident.

In a photo released by Vonn on her Facebook page, it showed how bad her legs were injured. Both Vonn's legs are covered in bruises, cuts, bandages and scars.

She posted this image on Feb. 15 with the caption: "My knee looks...um...not very good.... #longskirtsthissummer #ugh"
