I have not reached the finish line again and it is as if 60% of my Dnf rate (unfinished races) of my entire career has happened at these Games. I didn't feel a particular pressure, higher than usual, I felt loose and relaxed.
I knew my plan, I was focused, I skied well but once again it didn't work. " Sandra Naeslund clearly won the final in women's ski cross at the Beijing 2022 Olympics. The Swedish champion preceded the Canadian Marielle Thompson followed by Daniela Maier.

Silver for the Italian couple Moioli-Visintin. Baumgartner said: "These tears are so much better than the other day's. I can't say how much pressure it takes away when you know you have someone like Lindsey in the gate after you.
When you don't have to worry about things, you see your best comes out. Age? We look younger than everyone. "
