Mauro Caviezel is tough. He has to be too.
In January 2021, for example, the ski star suffered a concussion, a bruised bone and an injury to the lateral ligament on his left knee during Super-G training in Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
The veteran celebrated his comeback at the weekend in Lake Louise.

First in the descent, where he didn’t finish. The next day Caviezel started in the Super-G and fell. Of course, the alarm bells went off immediately among the teammates, especially since the Swiss recently declared that he “sees double in the deep squat”. A consequence of the injuries from Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
Dopfer sympathizes with Caviezel
At least Caviezel, who had apparently lost consciousness immediately following the fall, was still able to get up at the scene of the accident, even though there were clear signs of the fall on his face.
“Now we hope for the sake of the entire sport of skiing that Mauro is doing well and that he will come back soon,” said former professional Fritz Dopfer, who accompanied the race as a TV expert at Eurosport.
Caviezel won the Super-G classification in the World Cup in the 2019/2020 season and won bronze in the combined at the 2017 World Championships.
