United States Skier Ted Ligety has won a gold medal at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. The 29-year-old set the fast time in the first of two runs of Men’s Giant Slalom by almost a full second. On Ligety’s second run he was significantly slower but still had enough to beat out France’s Steve Missillier by 0.48 seconds.
The Salt Lake City, Utah born Ligety previously won gold at the 2006 games in Turin in Men’s Combined.
Things were not as good for Bode Miller who failed to medal. Still Miller is the United States’ most decorated skier after his bronze in Super G.
