Sofia Goggia feels reborn after surgery

The words of Sofia Goggia

After her excellent fifth place in the giant slalom a few days ago in Slovenia Sofia Goggia confirmed that she also wants to train between the red-blue gates of Val di Fassa, where she worked in the company of Federica Brignone and Lindsey Vonn, among others.

"I am really happy with the way I skied in Kraniska Gora, in the giant slalom I picked up from the placing I had in the last race last January in Kronplatz. These days in Val di Fassa I also alternate between fast and technical training".

"I am putting behind me a 2024 that began with a terrible injury in February, which also put me to the test emotionally and personally, with a dark moment that had even made me think about quitting the sport. With the plate on my foot, I couldn’t close the boot properly and ski, so I decided to take it off and è changed everything".

"I put on skis in late October, doing all the preparation at Copper Mountain. Lì we skied a lot, making a’very good progression and I knew I could be a protagonist. With the first races I didn’t expect anything, for’I knew exactly what my level was. And a victory and three podiums in the World Cup" came.
