'''Annemarie Moser-Pröll''' (born March 27, 1953) is a former [[FIS Alpine Ski World Cup|World Cup]] [[Alpine skiing| alpine ski racer]] from [[Austria]]. Born in [[Kleinarl]], [[Salzburg]], she was the most successful female alpine ski racer during the 1970s, with six overall titles, including five consecutive. Moser-Pröll celebrated her biggest successes in [[downhill]], [[Giant Slalom skiing|giant slalom]] and [[Alpine skiing combined|combined]] races. In [[1980 Alpine Skiing World Cup|1980]], her last year as a competitor, she secured her third [[Alpine skiing at the Winter Olympics|Olympic]] medal (and first gold) at [[Alpine skiing at the 1980 Winter Olympics|Lake Placid]] and won five World Cup races.


==Career==
==Career==

During her career, she won the overall World Cup title a record six times, including five consecutive (1971–75). She has 62 individual World Cup victories, more than any other female athlete and behind only [[Ingemar Stenmark]] and [[Ole Einar Bjørndalen]] among all winter ski sport athletes. She won five World Championship titles (3 downhill, 2 combined) and one Olympic gold medal.

She has 62 individual World Cup victories, more than any other female athlete and behind only [[Ingemar Stenmark]] and [[Ole Einar Bjørndalen]] among all winter ski sport athletes. She won five World Championship titles (3 downhill, 2 combined) and one Olympic gold medal.


The way to her first and only Olympic gold medal was quite long: At the [[Alpine skiing at the 1972 Winter Olympics|1972 games]] in [[Sapporo]], Japan, she was considered the clear favourite for downhill and giant slalom, but in both events she finished second behind Swiss [[Marie-Theres Nadig]]. At the end of 1975, when she was still the top racer in female World Cup, she interrupted her skiing career to look after her father who had lung cancer, so she missed the [[Alpine skiing at the 1976 Winter Olympics|1976 Winter Olympics]] in [[Innsbruck]], Austria. After the death of her father in June 1976, she resumed competitive skiing and was right away among the best, with second places in the overall World Cup for two seasons (1977, 1978), before she won the title again, for the sixth time, in 1979. Finally at the [[Alpine skiing at the 1980 Winter Olympics|1980 Winter Olympics]] in [[Lake Placid]], USA, she finished her extraordinary career by winning the downhill gold medal – with her 1972-rival Marie-Theres Nadig again on the podium, as bronze medalist.

After winning a fifth consecutive title in overall and downhill, she interrupted her racing career to care for her ailing father, afflicted with lung cancer. She missed the entire [[1976 Alpine Skiing World Cup|1976]] World Cup season, including the [[Alpine skiing at the 1976 Winter Olympics|1976 Winter Olympics]] in [[Innsbruck]], in her home country of Austria. After the death of her father in June 1976, she resumed competitive skiing and was immediately among the best, with second place in the overall World Cup standings for two seasons ([[1977 Alpine Skiing World Cup|1977]], [[1978 Alpine Skiing World Cup|1978]]), and won the overall title for the sixth time in [[1979 Alpine Skiing World Cup|1979]]. At the [[Alpine skiing at the 1980 Winter Olympics|1980 Winter Olympics]] in [[Lake Placid]], USA, she finished her extraordinary career by winning the downhill gold medal – with her 1972-rival Marie-Theres Nadig again on the podium, as bronze medalist.


==After racing==
A few weeks after having won the Olympic gold medal she retired from competitive skiing and started to run her own cafe, the "Weltcup-Café Annemarie" in [[Kleinarl]], which was decorated with her extensive cup and trophy collection.

Annemarie Moser-Pröll (born March 27, 1953) is a former World Cup alpine ski racer from Austria. Born in Kleinarl, Salzburg, she was the most successful female alpine ski racer during the 1970s, with six overall titles, including five consecutive. Moser-Pröll celebrated her biggest successes in downhill, giant slalom and combined races. In 1980, her last year as a competitor, she secured her third Olympic medal (and first gold) at Lake Placid and won five World Cup races.

Career

During her career, she won the overall World Cup title a record six times, including five consecutive (1971–75). She has 62 individual World Cup victories, more than any other female athlete and behind only Ingemar Stenmark and Ole Einar Bjørndalen among all winter ski sport athletes. She won five World Championship titles (3 downhill, 2 combined) and one Olympic gold medal.

The way to her first and only Olympic gold medal was quite long: At the 1972 games in Sapporo, Japan, she was considered the clear favourite for downhill and giant slalom, but in both events she finished second behind Marie-Theres Nadig of Switzerland. After winning a fifth consecutive title in overall and downhill, she interrupted her racing career to care for her ailing father, afflicted with lung cancer. She missed the entire 1976 World Cup season, including the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, in her home country of Austria. After the death of her father in June 1976, she resumed competitive skiing and was immediately among the best, with second place in the overall World Cup standings for two seasons (1977, 1978), and won the overall title for the sixth time in 1979. At the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, USA, she finished her extraordinary career by winning the downhill gold medal – with her 1972-rival Marie-Theres Nadig again on the podium, as bronze medalist.

After racing

Several weeks after the Olympics, she retired from competitive skiing and ran her own café, the "Weltcup-Café Annemarie" in Kleinarl, which was decorated with her extensive cup and trophy collection.

She married to Herbert Moser in 1974 and their daughter Marion was born in 1982. In December 2003 her first grandchild was born.

Eight months after the death of her husband, she retired from the gastronomy business in 2008 and sold the establishment to local entrepreneurs, who keep running it as "Café-Restaurant Olympia."
