NBC's Mary Carillo referred to her as "a Federer Freak", and I doubt Lindsey Vonn would object.  Two-time World Cup Overall champ Lindsey Vonn finally met the man she had always wanted to meet: Roger Federer.  Not that this was any secret.  Her two globes for winning the overall titles are sitting in a glass cabinet next to an autographed picture of Mr. Federer.  She told The Ski Channel that if she could ride the chairlift with anyone, dead or alive, it would be Roger Federer.

Vonn, doing some dryland training in Austria, jetted over to see Roger win his first French Open.  After the match, a beaming Vonn congratulated Federer on his 14th grand slam title.
