ÖSV sensation: Gold for Austria in the team combination

“I was incredibly nervous”

“I was so nervous, it was unbelievable, but I’m so happy it’s so cool“, says Rädler about the gold. After four cruciate ligament tears, the dream of a medal at the Olympics was soon gone, said the Vorarlberg native.

For Huber, that’s a feeling “indescribable”even if the Lower Austrian admitted before the start “abnormally nervous” to have been.

It is the first Olympic gold for the ÖSV women since Anna Veith’s triumph in the Super-G in Sochi in 2014.

The top favorites Johnson/Shiffrin (USA) – in the lead after the first round – fell back to 4th place.

“I didn’t have the nerve”

The Austrian top duo Hütter/troop came 5th. “I didn’t have the nerve today,” said Troupe, summing up her slalom run. Nevertheless, the two teammates are very happy about winning gold.

A mistake shortly before the finish cost us money Ortlieb/Gallhuber a better ranking – 7. Puchner/Hörhager ended up in 14th place.
