Dominique Gisin was one of the world’s top alpine ski racers from 2007 to 2015. At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, she became Olympic champion in the supreme discipline of downhill skiing at the
same time as the Slovenian Tina Maze. This very special and highly emotional victory has deeply touched and inspired many people all over the world, because Dominique achieved it after overcoming an almost unprecedented injury history (including 9 knee operations), coupled with many setbacks. Dominique Gisin won several World Cup races in the downhill and super-G disciplines and achieved further podium places in the same disciplines.
