Corinne Suter (28) had a lot of plans for this winter. No wonder, since she was physically and technically in better shape than ever in the fall. Her goal was clear: she wanted to compete for the Speed Crystal Balls. That did not work, for the World Cup final the Schwyzer is fourth (downhill) and seventh (Super-G). The reasons for this? On the one hand, her performance was too inconsistent after a strong start, but above all she suffered from the concussion she suffered after the bad start in Cortina (It). Her World Cup bronze in the downhill was almost a minor miracle. Suter: “I was lower than ever. That’s why this medal felt like gold.”
In Soldeu (And) Suter now wants to find a nice end to the winter. Will that work? She came third in the first practice, which gave hope. The backlog in the second practice session (2.32 seconds), on the other hand, is a cause for concern. Women’s head coach Beat Tschuor gives the signal: “The wind was inside, the practice was totally irregular. But it’s true that it happened – there wouldn’t have been a race under these conditions.”
“Very challenging”
The wind would be less on the descent, Tschuor is optimistic. And adds, “You don’t have to worry about Corinne.” He emphasizes that the descent is very challenging for the women – after long corners at the beginning it is one after the other. So nothing stands in the way of a spectacle. Anyway, what remains: Sofia Goggia (30, It) certainly already has the crystal ball downhill.
