A look back at the American Downhill World Cup Elite Champions 🇺🇸 🏆

Missy Giove, 1997 - takes the Downhill World Cup overall title once again! 🏆

After winning the final round in Kaprun 🇦🇹, Giove finished the season tied on points with Anne-Caroline Chausson. But with the victory in the final round, Missy takes the overall title on the tiebreaker! 🔥

Another World Cup overall victory for the legendary Missy Giove. 🇺🇸
