At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, Mayer won the downhill to become the seventh Austrian gold medalist in the 18th edition of the event. Joining him on the podium at Rosa Khutor were Christof Innerhofer of Italy and Kjetil Jansrud of Norway.[5] Immediately after the Olympics, he had two podium finishes in Norway,[6][7] and a victory at the World Cup finals. At the 2018 Winter Olympics, he won his second Olympic gold medal in the Super G. At the 2022 Winter Olympics he won a bronze medal in the downhill and successfully defended his title in the Super G. With three Olympic titles in addition to a bronze, he is Austria’s most decorated olympic alpine medalist of all time.[8]
