ÖSV duo surprised with bronze: Venier and troops inspire in Saalbach!

At the Ski World Championship in Saalbach, the Austrian athletes shine with excellent performances! The duo Stephanie Venier and Katharina Truppe caused a big surprise and brought the bronze medal in the newly introduced team combination competition. "We can be proud of ourselves," cheered troops after the exciting race. While Venier was relieved of her team medal after the long wait: "Thank God it is over" after she had already won gold in the descent. This is already the fifth medal for the Austrian ski team at this World Cup. As the crown reported , the medal was particularly important because expectations were not met for other teams.

troop that fought itself from a seventh place to the third had a solid run beforehand. This performance was particularly remarkable after other prominent ski girls like Mirjam Puchner and Katharina Liensberger could not build on their best performances. Puchner, who looked back on a strong departure, could not use her chance of a medal in the team combination. The two US skistars, Mikaela Shiffrin and Breezy Johnson, meanwhile secured the gold medal due to their top performance. Shiffrin, back in the competition after an injury -related break, showed impressive times and made it clear that she can keep up with the best. Like Sn.at, her performance was a decisive turn in this competition and reinforced the competition.
