Lindsey Vonn's run at the Olympia delle Tofane was only made perfect when she crossed the finish line.

The American skier recorded World Cup win No. 63 on Monday, breaking Austrian great Annemarie Moser-Proell's 35-year-old record of 62.

But when Vonn finished her run, she wasn't thinking about history. Instead, boyfriend Tiger Woods was there to share the moment with her.

"I didn't think this could get any better than yesterday with my entire family here but now with Tiger here this is unbelievable," Vonn said. "I said, 'I can't believe you came.' And he said, 'I told you.'"

This was Vonn's first win in super-G this season and her fourth overall. It's a triumphant return for the skier, who was forced to bow out of the Sochi Olympics after suffering two severe knee injuries.
