Like a legend: Kriechmayr wins 2 speed golds at ski worlds
Austria's Vincent Kriechmayr sprays sparkling wine on the podium as he celebrates after winning the men's downhill, at the alpine ski World Championships in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, Sunday, Feb.14, 2021. A feat previously achieved only by two legends of menโs Alpine skiing was matched by Austrian skier Kriechmayr at the world championships on Sunday. Kriechmayr added downhill gold to the super-G title he won three days ago to complete the so-called speed double. Fellow Austrian Maier had done the same in 1999, American standout Miller six years later. โHermann Maier is an Austrian legend and Bode Miller is a legend, too.
