Biography

Aged 17, she won gold medals in the downhill and giant slalom events at the 1972 Winter Olympics. During her career, Nadig won 24 world cup races and had 57 podium finishes. At the 1980 Winter Olympics, she was third in the downhill event. After retiring from competitions, between 1999 and 2005 she worked as a national coach.[2]

Career

Nadig won her first major competition in 1970, the giant slalom at the Swiss Junior Championships. She finished sixth in the downhill at the world cup in 1971, and second in 1972. The same year, she won two Olympic gold medals, beating the favorite Annemarie Moser-Pröll and becoming the Swiss Sportswoman of the Year. She also took part in the slalom, but failed to finish.[2][1]

After a few unsuccessful years, Nadig won two downhill events at the 1975 World Cup season. She competed in the slalom and giant slalom at the 1976 Olympics, but failed to achieve a podium. She recovered in 1977 by winning the downhill and the combined world cup events, and had a brilliant 1979–1980 season, finishing on the podium in all 14 world cup events, and winning 9 of them. However, at the 1980 Olympics, she earned only a bronze in the downhill and failed to finish the slalom and giant slalom.[2][1]

Retirement from skiing

Nadig retired in 1981 with a world cup tally of 24 wins and 57 podium finishes. She ran a sports store in Switzerland and later a hotel and as a ski school. Between 1999 and 2005 she worked with the Swiss national teams.[2][1] The 2004/05 season was the worst ever for the Swiss women ski racers since the introduction of the World Cup. After the team failed to win a medal at the 2005 World Championships, Nadig was let go in March 2005.[3] She finally ended her coaching career in October 2005.[4]

Marie-Theres «Maite» Nadig (* 8. März 1954 in Flums) ist eine ehemalige Schweizer Skirennfahrerin. Sie war in den 1970er und zu Beginn der 1980er Jahre besonders in den Disziplinen Abfahrt, Riesenslalom und Kombination erfolgreich. Dabei stand sie aber oft im Schatten ihrer österreichischen Konkurrentin Annemarie Moser-Pröll. Insgesamt gewann sie 24 Weltcuprennen; in der Saison 1980/81 entschied sie ausserdem die Gesamtwertung für sich. Ihr grösster Erfolg war der Gewinn der Abfahrts- und Riesenslalom-Goldmedaille bei den Olympischen Winterspielen 1972 in Sapporo. Eine Abfahrts-Bronzemedaille kam bei den Olympischen Winterspielen 1980 in Lake Placid hinzu. Nach ihrem Rücktritt vom Spitzensport im Jahr 1981 war sie zwei Jahrzehnte lang als Trainerin tätig, zuerst in Liechtenstein, später in der Schweiz.
