Shiffrin Skis To First GS Medal

By U.S. Ski & Snowboard
February, 16 2017

ST. MORITZ, Switzerland (Feb. 16, 2017) – With the fastest second run of the day, Mikaela Shiffrin (Eagle-Vail, CO) grabbed her first career World Championships giant slalom medal Thursday, finishing second on a sun-soaked course at the 2017 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships.

Tessa Worley of France took the victory, her second World Championship giant slalom title, as Italy’s Sofia Goggia finished third, her first World Championship medal as well. Megan McJames (Park City, UT) was the only other American to qualify for the second run, finishing 21st.

Shiffrin finished third in the first GS run, then stepped it up for the second run, especially on the bottom of the course with her strong finishing style.

“First run I felt like I left something out on the hill, but second run I really felt like I attacked,” said Shiffrin, who was eighth in GS in 2015 at Beaver Creek, and sixth in Schladming, Austria in 2013. “It was really fun to ski.”

Shiffrin, the two-time defending slalom World Champion, is now focused on Saturday’s slalom, the final event of the 2017 World Championships.

“It’s not so hard to carry momentum when you have good momentum going,” she said.  “I’m just going to try to ride this wave, get a little training tomorrow, and then go out and try to attack on Saturday.”

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Mikaela Shiffrin won her first World Championships giant slalom medal, taking the silver Thursday.
  • Shiffrin’s result was the best U.S. women’s World Championships giant slalom finish since Dianne Roffe won the GS title in 1985 in Bormio, Italy.
  • Tessa Worley of France won her second World Championship giant slalom title. She also won in 2013.
  • Italy’s Sofia Goggia took the bronze medal, her first career World Championship medal.
  • Megan McJames finished 21st, a career-best World Championship result.
  • Resi Stiegler (Jackson, WY) did not finish first run.
  • Saturday’s slalom is the final event of the 2017 World Championships for the women. First run starts at 3:45 a.m. and the second at 7 a.m. EST. Both runs will be live on NBCsports.com.

 

QUOTES
Mikaela Shiffrin
First run, I felt like I left something out on the hill, but second run I really feel like I attacked. It was really fun to ski.

I’m really happy. If you asked me in Beaver Creek at World Championships if I would ever medal in a GS, I was so far out and so mad about my skiing, I probably would have said no. Two years later, here I am. I’m really, really excited, especially with the fight second run.

I was trying to push the whole time. I didn’t really find my full rhythm until the middle and coming up to the bottom. Then I remember my coach saying ‘get in your tuck and go!’ and I felt like I did that. Good advice and I’m happy that I executed.

I was so excited. Seeing the green light when you come through the finish, no matter what, is always a good feeling. That moment, I just thought, no matter what I have a medal today and it’s a GS and that’s really exciting. It’s great for our team. It’s great for the U.S. And for sure, it’s great for me. I’m really psyched about it.

[On the course conditions]
It was actually really good for the second run. Sometimes it gets really peely with the sun baking the surface, but there was something underneath, and I was almost surprised with how good it was.

[On Saturday’s slalom]
It’s not so hard to carry momentum when you have good momentum going. I’m just going to try to ride this wave, get a little training tomorrow, and then go out and try to attack on Saturday.

[On St. Moritz]
(St. Moritz is) a beautiful place. Every time I’ve raced here it’s been sunny and amazing. I’m really looking forward to the slalom. I have a good feeling on my skis. I’m definitely prepared and now I just have to let it go.

This is the first time I’ve actually finished a GS race here! In the first run, I was tentative. I was thinking about it, about the spot I fell last year and the spot I fell two years before that. When I made it past there, I was like wow—I’ve never skied the bottom of this hill before! I was excited to make it to the finish and make it down strong. I don’t like feeling that there’s bad karma around any races or any place in particular because sometimes that can make it worse for you. I definitely felt some bad karma around the GS here and I’m much happier changing that today.

Megan McJames
I’m really happy with today. I really executed my goal, which was to go for it and have fun.

As Good As Gold

By Tom Kelly
February, 15 2017

Lindsey Vonn stood at the top of Engiadina looking out at the expanse of Swiss alpine peaks in every direction. It was a scenario she had been a part of many times before - her seventh World Championships. Now 32 years old, the then Lindsey Kildow was just 17 when she pushed into the same start for her very first European World Cup downhill at St. Moritz in 2001. She finished 57th out of 64 starters that day.

Like any pro sports athlete, if you're a ski racer you play through the pain. You don't win 77 World Cups without some agony of defeat. One of life's best measurements as a ski racer is how you come back from adversity.

This comeback had been tough for Lindsey Vonn. A broken arm and resultant nerve damage in her right hand had taken its toll. Sure, there was that moment of glory in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany last month when she tamed the Kandahar. But, then there was the agony of Cortina - one of her favorite courses - where she failed to come away with a win, uncharacteristically having skis slide out from under her two days in a row and into the nets.

In the World Championship super G five days earlier, she lost grip on her right pole on the bumpy track while in the lead. She fought valiantly to regain it, but lost focus momentarily, went too straight into a gate and skied out of the course.

In the alpine combined, a tough start number worked against her in the downhill. And with limited slalom training, few gave her a chance. But she gutted her way to fifth - a personal gold medal in building confidence.

Few elite athletes have competed in as many World Championships as Lindsey Vonn. She was just 20 when she climbed into the start gate at Santa Caterina, Italy in 2005 for her first Worlds. Two years earlier, at 18, she had been overlooked for the 2003 St. Moritz World Championships team despite a strong showing a year earlier in her Olympic debut.

In 2005, she learned about the bitter disappointment that comes with any elite athletic career: fourth in the downhill, fourth in the combined - a small step in time, but a giant step from the podium. It made her stronger.

Two years later in re, Sweden, she won silver in downhill and super G behind home country favorite Anja Paerson. Since then, nearly every two years Lindsey Vonn has won a speed medal at World Championship - including a golden sweep at Val d'Isere in 2009. But the one exception came in 2013, as an opening day super G crash stole much of the next two seasons from her career. It made her stronger.

At the team meeting the night before the downhill, weather forecasts called for overcast and flat light. But the day dawned bluebird with powerful light illuminating the nuances of the course. After fumbling with her pole in the super G, she went with a different Leki pole and a thinner glove to make it easier to grip.

As the time ticked down in the start house, her serviceman Heinzi wrapped her hand and pole tightly together with duct tape. No room for error in a sport where hundredths of seconds count.

She looked down on the treeless Engiadina downhill - a rock and rolling run that had not been overly kind to Vonn in the past. She had just one win there - a huge 1.42-second margin over friend and rival Maria Hoefl-Riesch in 2012. But just two years ago in the St. Moritz World Championships test event, Vonn was well off the pace.

As her start number 9 approached, all the pre-race favorites were in. Slovenia's rising superstar Ilka Stuhec was in the lead - no surprise. Austria's Stephanie Venier stood in silver with Italy's Sofia Goggia bronze - a final gate error stealing sure gold.

There wasn't much room for Vonn.

She thought to herself about the work she had put in and the confidence she had built in just one month - one single month - back racing against the best in the world.

In the shadow of the towering Piz Nair, Vonn pushed out and down the steep pitch of the Britannia start. The course kicked her this way and that as she set the edges of her Head skis into the ice at over 60 mph. One by one the intermediate lights flashed red. But the time told the story. The medal was hers.

Great athletic champions like Lindsey Vonn make their careers on gold - not silver or bronze. Sunday in St. Moritz was different. But every bit as meaningful.

"I've struggled with my confidence, but I fought back,” said Vonn.

"This bronze medal feels as good as gold to me."

France Wins World Championships Team Event

By Courtney Harkins
February, 14 2017

ST. MORITZ, Switzerland (Feb. 14, 2017) – It was a gorgeous day for the team event at the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships—a thrilling head-to-head race pitting one country against another. This year, France was victorious, taking home the gold medal for their country.

Behind France, Slovakia was second and Sweden third in the event that will be featured for the first time in the Olympic Games in 2018.

READ MORE: WHAT IS THE NATION'S TEAM EVENT?

The USA squad consisted of six athletes—four racers and two alternates: Resi Stiegler (Jackson, WY), Megan McJames (Park City, UT), Mark Engel (Truckee, CA), AJ Ginnis (Vouliagmeni, Greece), Laurenne Ross (Bend, OR) and Michael Ankeny (Deephaven, MN). In the first round, Stiegler, McJames, Engel and Ginnis went up against Canada—the team event silver medalists at the 2015 Vail/Beaver Creek World Championships. Stiegler and Ginnis won their races, McJames was beaten by her Canadian opponent and Engel straddled and lost a ski at the top of the course, which led the two teams to tie. But a tiebreaker—which looks at the matchups between the fastest man and woman races—meant Canada took the first-round win by .01 seconds.


(l-r) Megan McJames, Resi Stiegler, AJ Ginnis and Mark Engel smile after the team event. 

Stiegler was still bubbly after the race and is excited about getting the tech week started. “It’s awesome to be with the team and get the World Championships going for us,” she said. “We’re just getting the cobwebs out, the race vibes going. I’m bummed that we didn’t make it, but that’s ski racing and we’re going to come back out and do better in the other events.”

Ginnis, who was competing in his first World Championships, echoed Stiegler’s sentiments. “It’s a really fun event,” he said. “The atmosphere—the fact that you get to race with girls and guys and it’s a team effort is really cool. It doesn’t matter if two of them go out, you gotta put the pedal to the metal and get two fast runs!”

Next up, the tech skiers are in action in St. Moritz, with the women’s giant slalom taking place on Thursday and the men’s GS on Friday.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • France won the team event in St. Moritz—their first medal of the 2017 World Championships.
  • USA was knocked out in the first round by Canada.
  • Austria had won the last two team event medals in the World Championships and came in as the favorite, but was beaten by the Swedes in an early round.
  • Switzerland leads the St. Moritz World Championships medal count with six.
  • Veteran team event racers like Mikaela Shiffrin (Eagle-Vail, CO) and David Chodounsky (Crested Butte, CO) chose to focus on the upcoming tech events, rather than compete in Tuesday’s race.
  • Tech races begin on Thursday with the women’s giant slalom.

Resi Stiegler

I think it’s nice to be in the gate. It’s awesome to be with the team and get the World Championships going for us because we’re in the second week. We’re just getting the cobwebs out, the race vibes going. I’m bummed that we didn’t make it, but that’s ski racing and we’re going to come back out and do better in the other events.

AJ Ginnis
It’s a really fun event. The atmosphere—the fact that you get to race with girls and guys and it’s a team effort is really cool. It doesn’t matter if two of them go out, you gotta put the pedal to the metal and get two fast runs!

Megan McJames
We’ll be back and better next time!

Mark Engel
I’m a little disappointed with today, but it’s a really fun event and I know that we can all ski fast.

Swiss Surprise as Bennett 11th in Alpine Combined

By U.S. Ski & Snowboard
February, 13 2017

ST. MORITZ, Switzerland (Feb. 13, 2017) – Standing six-foot-seven-inches tall, Bryce Bennett (Squaw Valley, CA) is built more like a power forward than a power slalom skier. But competing in his first World Championships, Bennett hammered through a challenging slalom course to an 11th-place finish in Monday’s alpine combined to lead the U.S. at the 2017 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships.

Switzerland’s Luca Aerni surprised the best skiers in the world, winning his first major event in front of the roaring home-country crowd. Prior to Monday’s win, Aerni’s best results were a couple Swiss national titles (slalom 2015, alpine combined 2012) and a handful of top 10 World Cup finishes. Austria’s Marcel Hirscher, currently the best ski racer in the world, took the silver, followed by Aerni’s Swiss teammate Mauro Caviezel taking the bronze.

Bennett, who towers over the slalom gates, finished 18th in the morning downhill, and then put down a solid slalom run to lead four Americans into the top 25, including Brennan Rubie (Salt Lake City, UT) in 15th, Ryan Cochran-Siegle (Starksboro, VT) in 19th and Jared Goldberg (Holladay, UT) on 21st.

“In slalom, I don’t know what it’s like to be short, so I just go out and do what I do best … make it work,” said Bennett, who also commented on the slalom course conditions. “The course workers are doing a pretty good job. They injected last night, which was a questionable call. It didn’t really sink in, so it broke through pretty quick. But for the most part it’s alright, doable.”

The injected portions of the slalom course caught a number of racers off-guard as the top finishers from the morning downhill ran into trouble on the first break-over on the slalom track. Aerni, who finished 30th in the downhill and ran first in the slalom, posted the time to beat on a clean track and then watch in disbelief as 29 more racers failed to knock him off the top step of the podium.

 

 

Up next, the 2017 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships continue Tuesday with the team event. All events are streamed live on NBCsports.com and the NBC Sports app.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Switzerland grabbed the alpine combined gold and bronze medals with Luca Aerni and Mauro Caviezel finishing first and third respectively. Aerni and Caviezel are both first-time World Championship medalists.
  • Austria’s Marcel Hirscher picked up his fifth career World Championship medal, taking the silver in Monday’s alpine combined.
  • Bryce Bennett was the top American in 11th.
  • Brennan Rubie was 15th, Ryan Cochran-Siegle 19th and Jared Goldberg 21st.
  • Watch an encore of the men's alpine combined on NBCSN at 11 a.m. ET. 
  • Next, the World Champs continues with the team event on Tuesday, which will be live streamed on NBCsports.com and live on NBCSN at 6 a.m. ET.

The course workers are doing a pretty good job. They injected last night, which was a questionable call. It didn’t really sink in, so it broke through pretty quick. But for the most part it’s all right, doable.

Brennan Rubie
I had a little mistake right off the bat, but it’s actually good for me because it makes me go faster on the bottom. I was motivated and pushed all the way. I’m very happy.

Jared Goldberg
I skied a lot of the parts that I lost all my time in the downhill yesterday and I skied them way better. I was able to pull back to motivation and really go for it. It was mostly a good run. It was a lot of fun in the sunshine.

I’m just going to hammer the slalom as hard as I can. You’re going against Marcel Hirscher, Alexi Pinturault, all those guys are winning World Cup slaloms, and they’re pretty good in downhill. So really the only thing you can do is really go for it and not hold back.

Promising Athletes Compete at Upcoming Events

By U.S. Ski & Snowboard
February, 12 2017

PARK CITY, Utah (Feb. 12, 2017) – As the best in the world compete at the Audi FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in St. Moritz, Switzerland, America's rising alpine talent will also be competing – both in St. Moritz for the Longines Future Ski Champions Race and next door at Hinterreit, Austria in the 7 Nations Cup, one of Europe’s premiere U16 events.

While Mikaela Shiffrin (Eagle-Vail, CO), Longines Ambassador of Elegance and back-to-back World Champion in slalom heading into St. Moritz, prepares to compete on the big stage, Cleo Braun (Eagle, CO) - also of Shiffrin’s home club Ski & Snowboard Club Vail - will represent the USA at the Longines Future Ski Champions Race. Braun will be receiving her start number on the night before the race from Shiffrin at the bib draw before competing on Monday, Feb. 13. She’ll be racing giant slalom against U16 athletes selected from 13 different countries.

 

Braun, along with twelve teammates, will also represent the U.S. in giant slalom and slalom races at Hinterreit, a popular training location for U.S. Ski Team’s Audi FIS Ski World Cup athletes. The 7 Nations Cup is hosted by a different nation in Europe each year and gives young, promising talent from the U.S. a good opportunity to ski against Europe’s best.

“The 7 Nations Cup is the premier international event for our U16s and we are looking to see how our athletes compare against their European peers,” said Chip Knight, U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association’s National Alpine Development Director. “In the bigger picture, we want to expose our young athletes to a high-quality competitive experience so they can continue their development toward the elite levels of our sport. Competing with the best Europeans in their age group gives them a taste of international championship racing that they can build on in future years.”

Since its inception, U.S. U16s have snagged five top-five finishes, including a pair of podiums last season by Alix Wilkinson (Park City, UT) of the Park City Ski Team and AJ Hurt (Carnelian Bay, CA) from the Squaw Valley Ski Team. Four athletes who competed in last year’s 7 Nations Cup will return again to lead the team this year: Patrick Coughlin (North Salem, NY) of Burke Mountain Academy), plus Kellen Kinsella (Edwards, CO), Zane Worrell (Vail, CO), Kaitlyn Harsch (Avon, CO) and Allie Resnick (Vail, CO) - all from Ski & Snowboard Club Vail.

“It means a lot coming back after last year, having a lot of nerves and never having raced in Europe and not knowing what it’s going to be like,” said Coughlin. “I’m really excited to go back and give it another shot.”

The 7 Nations Cup will kick off with a giant slalom race on Feb. 15 and wrap up with a slalom race on Feb. 16.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Cleo Braun (Eagle, CO) of Ski & Snowboard Club Vail has been selected to represent the U.S. in the Longines Future Ski Champions giant slalom race in St. Moritz on Feb. 13.
  • Longines Ambassador of Elegance and back-to-back World Champion in slalom, Mikaela Shiffrin (Eagle-Vail, CO), will hand out bibs to athlete participants at a public draw on Feb. 13 in Kulm Park at 5:00pm.
  • Thirteen American athletes will compete at this year’s 7 Nations Cup at Hinterreit in Austria - one of the premiere U16 events in Europe.
  • The group of U16 athletes represent over seven different USSA clubs from around the country.
  • Athletes will compete in a giant slalom race on Feb. 15 and a slalom race on Feb. 16.

Goldberg Leads USA in World Champs Downhill

By Courtney Harkins
February, 12 2017

ST. MORITZ, Switzerland (Feb. 12, 2017) – Jared Goldberg (Holladay, UT) led the Americans at the makeup day for the Audi FIS Alpine World Ski Championships downhill, taking 20th.

Beat Feuz of Switzerland, who won the downhill and super G test events at St. Moritz during the 2015-16 season, secured the gold medal in front of the hometown crowd. Canadian Erik Guay continued his dominant week in St. Moritz to take silver and Max Franz of Austria took bronze.

 

 

The day started out with similar weather to Saturday’s postponed downhill—a thick layer of fog hovering in the middle of the course. But as the day went on, the cloud lifted, leaving brilliant sunshine sparkling on the World Championships track.

Due to the early weather, the downhill start was lowered, but that didn’t restrict the men from catching huge air off the jumps.

“I tried as hard as I could to be fast down the hill,” said Goldberg. “Having the start moved down—it was definitely a strength of mine to have the top part… Today the speed was lower and it came more into gliding. These guys are veterans and have been doing it for 10 or more years than me, so I was just trying to be as close as I could to them.”

Behind Goldberg, Travis Ganong (Squaw Valley, CA) was 25th, Bryce Bennett (Squaw Valley, CA) 26th and Tommy Biesemeyer (Keene, NY) 29th.

Next at the World Championships is an alpine combined on Monday. Stream the full event live on NBCsports.com/live starting at 4:00 a.m. ET or watch the slalom run of the combined live on NBCSN at 6:30 a.m. ET.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Jared Goldberg was the top American in 20th.
  • Noticeably missing from the action was American Downhiller Steven Nyman (Sundance, UT), who injured his knee prior to the World Championships. It is his 35th birthday.
  • Watch the replay of the downhill at 2:00 p.m. ET on NBCSN.
  • Next up at St. Moritz, the men race an alpine combined on Monday.

Jared Goldberg
[On key tactics]
It was important to] get a really low aerodynamic position, and trying to hold that the whole way down. The speed was a lot lower today because we went from the combined start. Stay in that low bullet and go for it and trying to cut off line when you can.

I tried as hard as I could to be fast down the hill. Having the start moved down—it was definitely a strength of mine to have the top part. It kind of psyches some guys out and I feel totally comfortable going down something like that. That was definitely a way to make more speed on these guys. Today the speed was lower and it came more into gliding. These guys are veterans and have been doing it for 10 or more years than me, so I was just trying to be as close as I could to them.

It’s been tough this whole week, just getting the races pushed back. You have to be mentally ready for whatever happens with the conditions. But we got it off.

I was trying to carry some more velocity. When I get out of position, aerodynamically it’s really slow. I’m a big guy. Just try and keep it tight was the plan and I thought I did a pretty good job.

Since the course has been worked on by all the volunteers, it’s in really good shape. The snow is super smooth—super dense and firm and you can push wherever you want.

Vonn Grabs World Championships Downhill Bronze

By U.S. Ski & Snowboard
February, 12 2017

ST MORITZ, Switzerland (Feb. 12, 2017) – Lindsey Vonn (Vail, CO) landed on the podium, taking the bronze medal, to lead all four Americans into the top 15 in Sunday’s downhill at the 2017 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships.

Slovenia’s Ilka Stuhec continued her dominant season to take the gold ahead of Austria’s Stephanie Venier, who grabbed the silver. Laurenne Ross (Bend, OR) was fifth, Jackie Wiles (Aurora, OR) tied for 12th and Breezy Johnson (Victor, ID) was 15th.

“It’s been a tough year for me coming back from my arm injury,” said 32-year-old Vonn, who became the oldest woman in World Championships history to stand on the podium. “Definitely struggled with my confidence there for a little bit, but I fought back and today a bronze medal feels like gold to me. It’s my seventh World Championship medal, and I now have every color in downhill, so I’m very proud of what I did today.”

Ross nailed the bottom of the downhill course to post a career-best World Championship result.

“My strongest section is coming off the bottom pitch and off that last big jump,” Ross said. “I could feel myself carrying speed. I’m not sure how my top sections were - they haven’t been the fastest this week - but I gave it what I had and I skied well and I’m happy.”

 

 

For Wiles, who is competing in only her second World Championships, Sunday’s downhill was an opportunity to get back on track after not finishing the super G earlier in the week.

“I was a little bummed at first after the super G,” Wiles said. “After the training runs, I needed to tighten my line up quite a bit after watching some video. I just tried to send it as hard as I could today and tighten that line up. I think for the most part, it was pretty good in sections, but there were a couple turns also where I scrubbed (some speed). But it’s OK, still a lot of fun, and I’m just happy to be here.”

QUOTES
Lindsey Vonn
I’m very satisfied. It’s been a tough year for me coming back from my arm injury. Definitely struggled with my confidence there for a little bit, but I fought back and today a bronze medal feels like gold to me. It’s my seventh World Championship medal, and I now have every color in downhill, so I’m very proud of what I did today.

[on her injuried arm]
It’s not getting any better, but it's not getting any worse so I’ll just keep using tape on my pole until the end of the season. And then I can do more rehab when I get done with the season, and hopefully it gets better.

[on preparing for the 2018 Olympics]
We still have more World Cup races this year, but I’m going to do my best to be prepared for the next Olympics.

Laurenne Ross
My strongest section is coming off the bottom pitch and off that last big jump. I could feel myself carrying speed. I’m not sure how my top sections were - they haven’t been the fastest this week - but I gave it what I had and I skied well and I’m happy.

It’s World Champs, so it’s all or nothing. So I knew I had to give it everything I could and I had to leave it all out on the hill. So I approached it with that sense. I didn’t want to have any regrets. So I just sent it and hoped that it would come together.

Jackie Wiles
I was a little bummed at first after the super G. But I gave it my all and I had to let that one go and get ready for the downhill. I still felt like I gave it my all, it just wasn’t good enough today.

After the training runs, I needed to tighten my line up a quite bit after watching some video. I just tried to send it as hard as I could today and tighten that line up. I think for the most part, it was pretty good in sections, but there were a couple turns also where I scrubbed (some speed). But it’s OK, still a lot of fun, and I’m just happy to be here.

Fog Postpones World Champs Downhill

By Courtney Harkins
February, 11 2017

ST. MORITZ, Switzerland (Feb. 11, 2017) – After a morning of delays due to fog, Saturday’s Audi FIS Alpine World Ski Championships men’s downhill has been postponed. While it was sunny at the start and finish, a thick cloud settled on the middle of course and would not dissipate.

Both the men's and the women's downhills now are planned for Sunday, with the women starting at 11:15 local time and the men at 13:30 local time. Live stream both events on NBCsports.com/live or the NBC Sports app at 5:15 a.m. ET for the women's downhill and 7:30 a.m. ET for the men.

Memories and Duct Tape Propel Vonn To Fifth

By U.S. Ski & Snowboard
February, 10 2017

ST MORITZ, Switzerland (Feb. 10, 2017) – A roll of duct tape and fond memories of growing up racing slalom can go a long way in ski racing. Just ask Lindsey Vonn, who battled to fifth in the alpine combined at the 2017 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships Friday.

Switzerland swept the top two positions in Friday’s race with Wendy Holdener taking the gold and Michelle Gisin the silver – both first time World Championship medalists. Austria’s Michaela Kirchgasser took the bronze - her third career World Championship medal. Laurenne Ross (Bend, OR) was 15th and Stacey Cook (Mammoth Mountain, CA) was 22nd.

However, the story of the day was Switzerland’s Lara Gut, who finished third in the morning downhill, but suffered a crash training slalom before the second run and was airlifted off the course. Gut was diagnosed with a torn ACL in her left knee and did not compete in slalom. Her racing status for the rest of the season has yet to be determined.

“I’m really hoping that (Lara) is not badly injured,” Vonn said. “It’s always a shame to see that happen. It’s happened to me all too often.”

Vonn, who returned to ski racing last month following a pair of injuries, including breaking her right arm, has experienced issues with maintaining her right pole grip since returning to competition. In Tuesday’s super G, she lost her pole grip midway down the track, which resulted in a break of concentration and a DNF. So in Friday’s combined, she duct taped the pole to her hand.

“It’s better with duct tape,” she said after she took sixth in the downhill run. “My hand seems to stay on the pole, so that’s good! My hand is just not strong enough, especially in slalom, I skied slalom for the first time two days ago and I had no idea if it would work, but we just taped it. My hand was a little bit sloppy … but good enough for fifth place.”

 

 

Vonn, who hasn’t trained or raced slalom much over the past couple years may have surprised others with her fifth-place finish, but for her, it was all about digging deep into the memory bank and getting back to her skiing roots of doing slalom laps on Buck Hill under legendary coach Erich Sailer.

“I really just thought about growing up skiing in Minnesota,” said Vonn, who has only skied two slalom runs in the past year, but counts two World Cup slalom victories to her credit. ”I grew up skiing slalom. I know how to ski slalom. Just because I haven’t done it in a really long time doesn’t mean I can’t do it. So I wasn’t going to let anyone underestimate me. I went out there and I attacked. It wasn’t quite good enough for a podium, but I’m still proud of my performance.”

Most importantly though, Vonn was able to put down another run on the downhill track, setting her up nicely for Sunday's downhill event.

“I’m excited for Sunday,” Vonn said. “I’m going to lay it all out on the line, like I do every day, every race, and I hope that I can get on the podium.”

Up next, the women race downhill Sunday at 6 a.m. EST. All events are streamed live on NBCsports.com and the NBC Sports app.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Switzerland went 1-2 in the women’s combined with Wendy Holdener winning gold and Michelle Gisin silver – both first time World Championship medalists.
  • Austria’s Michaela Kirchgasser was third - her third career World Championship medal.
  • Lindsey Vonn was the top American in fifth place. Laurenne Ross was 15th and Stacey Cook 22nd.
  • Switzerland’s Lara Gut was third in the morning downhill, but suffered a left knee injury training slalom prior to the second run and did not start.

I skied the slalom for the first time two days ago and I had no idea if it would work, but we just taped it. My hand was a little bit sloppy … but good enough for fifth place.

I was pretty irritated, to be honest. Even my coaches were like, ‘So, we’re going to go back to the hotel and we’re not going to do the slalom.’ And I was like, ‘What are you talking about, I still have a chance.’ I was pretty close. I was only two-tenths off the podium. I wish I had a little more slalom skill left from my old days of slalom victories. But I tried my best. I’ve only skied two runs of slalom since last year in Andorra, so it’s not too bad.

I really just thought about growing up skiing in Minnesota. I grew up skiing slalom. I know how to ski slalom. Just because I haven’t done it in a really long time doesn’t mean I can’t do it. So I wasn’t going to let anyone underestimate me. I went out there and I attacked. It wasn’t quite good enough for a podium, but I’m still proud of my performance.

I hit my face somehow on the third or fourth gate and it took me a second to kind of get back into it. But from that point down, from the first little pitch down, I skied well.

The older you get, the more you appreciate every opportunity. I happy to be here; I’m happy to be racing. I’m excited for Sunday. I’m going to lay it all out on the line, like I do every day, every race, and I hope that I can get on the podium.

I’m really hoping that (Lara) is not badly injured. It’s always a shame to see that happen. It’s happened to me all too often.

Laurenne Ross
[On racing slalom]
It was a battle. It was a little wild. I might have gone on my bum once. But it was pretty fun. I made it down, which is kind of amazing considering the run.

[On the crowd]
You can hear (the crowd) from the start. It’s really cool. Such good energy; it’s really motivating and inspiring. It’s awesome.

Canada 1-3 as Ganong Tops For USA

By U.S. Ski & Snowboard
February, 8 2017

ST. MORITZ, Switzerland (Feb. 8, 2017) – Canada’s Erik Guay became the oldest World Champion in alpine skiing history, winning the men’s super G Wednesday at the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships. Travis Ganong (Squaw Valley, CA) was the top American in 14th.

For Guay - the 35-year-old veteran of the Canadian Ski Team and one of only three athletes competing at these World Championships who also competed in the 2003 World Championships in St. Moritz - this victory was made even more special by sharing the podium with his teammate Manuel Osborne-Paradis, who finished third. Norway’s Kjetil Jansrud was second. Wednesday’s race was the first time that two Canadian men have finished on the podium in World Championship history.

“I’m happy to be healthy; happy to be here,” said Guay, who took an acrobatic, hard fall at last week’s downhill at Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. “It’s absolutely incredible, and the only thing that can make a victory better is to share it with friends.”

Guay, who started bib 14, Jansrud with bib 9 and Osborne-Paradis bib 26 enjoyed a slight advantage of watching earlier racers tackle the fast, technical and challenging course.

“When you go early like that, you don’t really know how the course is going to run. You don’t get the course reports,” said Ganong, who started bib 4. “It was an open, fast set. The jumps were actually bigger than the downhill training yesterday. It was a really tricky set, really fast speeds, and it’s a World Championship event, so everybody is pushing super hard.”

Starting early, though, Ganong did provide crucial course information for his teammates, including Ryan Cochran-Siegle (Starksboro, VT), who finished 28th, and Tommy Biesemeyer (Keene, NY), who posted top-five times at the first three intermediate splits before leaning in and booting out on a tough left-footer, and not finishing.

Wednesday’s race came at the one-year mark away from the first day of the 2018 Olympic Winter Games in PyeongChang, South Korea. The 2017 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships continue Friday with the women’s alpine combined, followed by men’s downhill Saturday and women’s downhill Sunday. All events are streamed live on NBCsports.com and the NBC Sports app.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Canada’s Erik Guay won the men’s super G, his second World Championship medal (gold, downhill 2011). At 35 years old, Guay became the oldest winner in Alpine World Ski Championships history.
  • Manuel Osborne-Paradis of Canada, who celebrated his 33rd birthday Wednesday, was third.
  • This was the first time that two Canadians have stood on the podium together in Alpine World Ski Championships history.
  • Travis Ganong was the top American in 14th. Ryan Cochran-Siegle was 28th.
  • Andrew Weibrecht (Lake Placid, NY) and Tommy Biesemeyer (Keene, NY) did not finish.

When you go early like that, you don’t really know how the course is going to run. You don’t get the course reports.

It was an open, fast set. The jumps we’re actually bigger than the downhill training yesterday. It was a really tricky set, really fast speeds, and it’s a World Championship event, so everybody is pushing super hard. All that matters is the first three positions.

I pushed really hard, and I had some really good skiing, but one section I missed the timing a little bit.
