Huge relief for Katharina Liensberger! After a difficult phase, the ÖSV skier took bronze in the World Championship slalom on Saturday. She dedicated the medal to her late grandmother: "I raced for her!"

"It's wonderful, I'm so grateful," Liensberger beamed in the ORF interview. "It hasn't been an easy World Championships so far. A medal was my big goal!"

The Vorarlberg native feels a deep family connection. "I wanted to do the race for my grandma who passed away," says Liensberger, who also thanks the local ski fans. "I felt the energy of the spectators!"

"... then a lot of things in life are easier"
 Recently, there had been repeated criticism of the technical specialist's performance. "The joy wasn't always there," admits Liensberger. "I've certainly changed over the last few years. It's the toughest experiences that help you the most. When you have the feeling that nothing is working anymore."

But now things are running smoothly again, as she proved with the bronze medal. "If you love what you do, a lot of things in life are easier," says Liensberger.
