Former world super-G skiing champion Hannes Reichelt retires
The former world champion s latest setback, however, was one too many.
The 40-year-old Reichelt said Wednesday he will retire at this week s World Cup finals in Lenzerheide, Switzerland.
The announcement came six years after the Austrian won the biggest prize of his two-decade-long career super-G gold at the world championships in Beaver Creek, Colorado. I ve got the feeling that after 20 years on the World Cup the time has come to leave, Reichelt said.
He failed to get back to the top level after damaging his right knee in a downhill crash in December 2019 and didn t make the Austrian team for the worlds in Cortina d Ampezzo, Italy, last month.

Austrian Hannes Reichelt, world super-G champion in 2015, on Wednesday announced his retirement at the age of 40. After 20 years on the World Cup circuit, I had a feeling the moment had come say goodbye, said Reichelt, who made his elite ski debut in December 2001. I was finding it increasingly difficult to push myself and go to the max in races.
Reichelt won the world super-G title in Beaver Creek in 2015, four years after bagging a silver in Garmisch. He also won the discipline s small crystal globe in 2008.
