American skiing great Lindsey Vonn recently reflected on her friendship with former wrestler actor Dwayne Johnson and called him a great mentor.


The three-time Olympic medallist is the first global ambassador of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson’s Project Rock—an apparel collection—but their friendship goes way back.  


“We actually started our friendship because he was on the cover of Sports Illustrated and they asked him ‘Could anyone keep up with you in the gym?’ And he said the only person would be me—and I was like, whoa, whoa, I’m not sure that’s accurate. Anyway, I was shocked by the interview and his people contacted us and he’s really been a great friend and a great mentor since then,” Vonn was quoted as saying by footwearnews.


She added: “I’ve learned a lot from him. He’s always been someone I can call anytime, which is pretty outstanding. And he’s like everything that he appears to be on TV and in movies. He’s just the nicest human.”
