Marta Bassino

Marta Bassino secured her first Europa Cup win in Sestriere, Italy, and clinched the world junior giant slalom title in Jasna, Slovakia, both in 2014, signaling her emergence as a formidable talent in alpine ski racing. Prior to these victories, Bassino demonstrated her potential with a sixth-place finish in downhill at the 2013 Junior World Ski Championships in Quebec, Canada. She subsequently made her World Cup debut at the end of the 2013/14 season, placing 19th in Lenzerheide, Austria. Her consistent performance led to her first World Cup top-10 finish in the Are giant slalom at the conclusion of the 2014/15 season.

This notable achievement at Meribel underscored her increasing prowess in speed disciplines, a progression further cemented with her first World Cup downhill win at Crans Montana, Switzerland, in February 2024. This victory showcased her expanding dominance across multiple alpine skiing categories, establishing Marta Bassino as a leading figure in international alpine ski racing.
