The men’s slalom competition is arguably the most wide-open Alpine skiing event of the 2022 Winter Olympics. 88 men are entered and few can be counted out from making it to the podium. NBC and Peacock will bring you live coverage of all the action from both runs.
The Favorites
While there may not be any clear-cut locks for the podium, several skiers in the field enter the men’s slalom competition in good form.
Norway’s Lucas Braathen is the current World Cup leader, followed closely by countryman Sebastian Foss-Solevaag, the reigning world champion. Norway also boasts the most accomplished slalom skier in the field in Henrik Kristoffersen, who holds 19 career World Cup wins in the discipline.
Austria also brings a list of multiple medal contenders, among them Johannes Strolz, surprise gold medalist in the men’s combined event. He won the slalom portion by nearly two seconds.
The Americans
Only one U.S. skier is entered into the event: 24-year-old Luke Winters from Gresham, Oregon.
His best career result came just over a month ago with a 10th-place finish in a World Cup slalom race in Adelboden, Switzerland.
