Thanks to a new Wildcard scheme in the Alpine Ski World Cup, you think of a former world-class athlete in your backpack: Neben Lindsey Vonn and Marcel Hirscher see Anna Veith’s Austrian Olympic Games make a comeback in Betracht.

The new Wildcard in the Alpine Ski-Weltcup hat is the most evil Weltklasse athlete considering a comeback. As Davon erfuhr, “I thought: ‘Cool, you could do it on your own and run smoothly,'” said Olympian Anna Veith from Österreich.

The 35-year-old Olympiad in the Super-G in Sochi 2014, who has not yet won a WM title and triumphed in the Gesamtweltcup, would be in the Rücktritt erklärt in 2020. Inzwieren is het zweifache Mutter and Unternehmerin, vom Rennen fahren sei aber ber “weit weg”, room Veith is one of the Bekanntgabe of the Partnership with the Ski Company Kästle ein.

“Trotzdem würde Veith “nothing new”. The Möglichkeit, darüber nachzudenken, fände is extremely exciting. “It is certainly not a matter of luck, that is the Gesamtweltcup gewinne.”

Hirscher bereits Nutznießer der Regel – Vonn scheint entschlossen

Ihr Landsmann Marcel Hirscher immediately took advantage of this new Rule for Saisonauftakt in Sölden in October. Hirscher’s top slalom competitor Lucas Pinheiro Braathen is active in the Weltcup-Zirkus Wieder. De Norweger fährt ab sofort aber für Brasilien – dem Geburtsland seiner Mutter.

Nor ist Veith aber bei Weitem not so nahe am leistungssport wie Hirscher and Braathen. Derzeit würde is “vielleicht voor een halben Lauf Reichen”, so Veith. If you find a colleague of Konkurrentin Lindsey Vonn (40) here, it’s not even that much fun to play.

In a comeback it must “last a year, also a winter and a summer” long, “if it does not last longer”. There are more and more problems with the swishing of the Griff – but a pinch damage in the fin will probably be reported after a longer training phase.

The 35-year-old competed in Olympia and FIS Wettbewerben on skis from 2005 to 2020 and during that time she won gold, silver and four bronzes. After the holidays, there are other two cross-border holidays, and we have been there since May 2020 during our career.
