Austria – Alpine Skiing Powerhouse!!!

After winning the Downhill event 5 days earlier, Dorftmeister is again on the podium with a Gold Medal around her neck. This time for the Women’s Super-G event (which was postponed yesterday due to inclement weather). Dorftmeister’s time was 1 minute 32.47 seconds.

Oh no, Bode…not again!!!

The American’s woe at the Alpine Skiing event continues…

No ‘Miller Time‘ for Bode just yet… (Source: Newsweek Magazine)
Bode, Bode, Bode…what can we say? Miller came into the Winter Olympics as the World Champion, with 5 Gold Medals within reach. But until today, he doesn’t even have a podium finish, much less a Gold.
In his first event on Sunday (Feb. 12), Bode finished 5th (Downhill). On Tuesday (Feb. 14), he straddled a gate (i.e. the pole in the snow went between his legs) on the Downhill portion of the Combined event and was disqualified.
