S+Alex Vinatzer: A season of complete contrasts

Numbers don't lie. Especially not in sports. And they show that Alex Vinatzer, with 385 points and 18th place in the overall standings, had by far the best World Cup season of his career (previously 22nd place with 323 points in 2023). Nevertheless, a lingering sense of disappointment remains, because after a phenomenal start to the season, there was a clear downward trend from January onwards.

And Alex Vinatzer wouldn't be Alex Vinatzer if he didn't question this with a highly self-critical eye. The Val Gardena native is not only one of the most approachable athletes in the ski circuit – he's also never too proud to address things bluntly.
