"Excited to announce that I'm heading to Europe tomorrow and will be back on snow on Thursday," Vonn said on Twitter.

"Just to be clear, I am still undecided on whether I will compete in the first race of the season in Solden. Will make a decision (on) Friday."

Vonn, who withdrew from the 2014 Sochi Olympics after re-injuring her right knee that was damaged in the 2013 world championships and required two surgeries, broke the record for most World Cup victories by a woman earlier this year.

The World Cup season begins on Saturday in Solden, Austria.
