#CourchevelMèribel2023 - Daily Diary #4 | 2023 FIS World Alpine Ski Championships

ourchevel-Meribel 2023 is already looking like writing itself into the history books as the World Championships of surprises.

James Crawford (CAN) is a rapidly improving skier, especially on faster slopes. But few would have bet on the daring Canadian defeating all of the big beasts of the men’s super-G – Aleksander Aamodt Kilde (NOR), Vincent Kriechmayr (AUT) and hot favourite Marco Odermatt (SUI) – to take his first major gold medal.

On the Wall of the Brave, though, Crawford was fast, fearless and aggressive where others were tentative. He pipped Kilde into silver by +0.01 seconds. Local hero Alexis Pinturault (FRA), who lifted the Alpine Combined title here on day one, continued a great week by taking bronze (+0.26).
