Milestones

OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES
After not finishing the slalom and giant slalom in her Olympic Winter Games debut at Sochi 2014, she won a full set of medals at PyeongChang 2018. She led Switzerland to the parallel team gold, and individually won slalom silver (0.05 seconds behind winner Sweden's Frida Hansdottir) and Alpine combined bronze. Won silver in Alpine combined and bronze in the slalom at Beijing 2022. She won her fifth Olympic medal, which equals the Swiss record held by Alpine skier Schneider (three gold, one silver, and one bronze) and bobsledder Fritz Feierabend (three silver, two bronze).

WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS
In six World Championships (2011-21) she won four medals (three gold). In 2017 on home snow in St. Moritz, she won two medals (Alpine combined gold, slalom silver), and two years later, double gold in 2019 in Are (Alpine combined, team parallel).

In three starts at the 2011 Junior World Championships, she won another full set of global medals (Alpine combined gold, downhill silver, giant slalom bronze).

WORLD CUP
In over 225 World Cup starts, she has over 40 podiums and three victories.

Her first World Cup win was in 2016 in the ladies city event (parallel) in Stockholm, beating Frida Handsdottir (SWE) in the Big Final. Her latest individual victory was in 2018 in Alpine combined in Lenzerheide.

Second in the World Cup overall in 2018 (third in 2019).
