Austrian Heidi Bucher, fresh from the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympics, won the women's youth sprint freestyle at the FIS Junior and U23 World Ski Championships in Lillehammer on Monday. Sweden's Eddie Pettersson took the men's title amid challenging snowy conditions. Both events highlighted strong performances from Norwegian skiers.
Emy Charbonnier of France claimed her first junior world title in the Super G and followed it with gold in the women's team combined at the FIS Alpine Junior World Ski Championships in Narvik, Norway. The event faced tough weather conditions, including high winds that canceled the downhill races. Despite swirling snow and rain, Charbonnier and her teammate Ilona Charbotel outperformed rivals from Italy and Austria.
