Ski World Cup 2025: Burgenland without athletes – who will win the medals?

The 2025 Alpine Ski World Championships are just around the corner and will be held in Saalbach-Hinterglemm from February 2nd to 12th. But there will be no participation from Burgenland orf.at reported. The only hope from the region remains cross-country skier Magdalena Scherz from Bruckneudorf, who continues to dream of taking part in the Nordic World Ski Championships in Trondheim two weeks later. Meanwhile, Team Dornau is preparing for the Special Olympics World Games in Turin, where they will show their colors in Italy.

Not long ago, the ÖSV team history was strongly influenced by the 2023 World Cup, in which Austria was unable to win a gold medal. This was the first time since 1987. Nevertheless, the athletes secured a total of seven medals, which represents a respectable placement in the middle of the field in history laola1.at reported. However, the Austrian Alpine skiing circus is optimistic about the upcoming World Championships, especially considering the convincing performances at previous championships, such as the 2021 World Championships, where the team captured five gold, one silver and two bronze medals.

Successful reviews and parallel events

The 1991 home World Championships in Saalbach-Hinterglemm remains one of the most successful for the Austrian team, with five gold medals won at the time. Now the hope is to return to previous successes. Meanwhile, the Basketball Superliga is also attracting a lot of attention again, with the Oberwart Gunners determined to defend their championship title. The national soccer team also has big goals as they want to qualify for a World Cup between March and November 2025. The outcome of the upcoming sporting events is eagerly awaited and could once again put the top performers in the spotlight.
