Matthias Mayer (born 9 June 1990 in Afritz am See, Carinthia) is an Austrian alpine ski racer specialising in the Super-G discipline. He is a three-time Olympic champion and winner of 11 World Cup events.

Interesting Fact

In his early career, Mayer underwent an ankle surgery, which caused him to develop reactive arthritis during recovery. He lost 15 kg and could not return to training for almost a year. After a long recovery period, Matthias sensationally took gold in the downhill at the Winter Olympics in Sochi, even though he never had a podium finish at any of the previous World Cup Events. He repeated his success at the Olympic Games in Pyeongchang. Mayer won a gold medal in Super-G, becoming the second Austrian to do so.

Quote

Most importantly, never give up. After one race there will be the next race, so even if one goes wrong there is always another.
