Monday’s gold medal win in the Alpine Combined, to go with a silver in the Super-G and gold in the Downhill at this year’s Alpine World Ski Championships, means Maze is on the verge of making history.
Should success in the Giant Slalom and Slalom follow then the 31-year-old will become the first woman to ever win five individual medals at a single World Championships, with Lasse Kjusin of Norway in 1999 the only man to have achieved the feat.
“I’m more than halfway, so three is done, missing two more,” Maze told NBC Sports. “I hope I can do it, for sure. It’s not easy.”
