cup overall situation
Everyone has been going on about the overall World Cup and the situation with the points,
confidence gives hope red self strength
It matters. The red bib always matters. It gives me self confidence and more strength at the start. I hope I can keep having the red bib.
feels good season winning
It feels pretty good to end this season by winning a Cup.
joy winning
Now I feel the joy of winning again.
meant week
I think this week was not meant to be.
anyone hope start thinking
I hope she's healthy. But I have to start thinking about myself and not anyone else.
attitude believe downhill fighting finish hoping positive top year
It was unbelievably close. I can't believe I won. I have been fighting the downhill all year and I didn't come here with a positive attitude ? I was hoping to finish top 10.
closer snow
I'm not very comfortable in my downhill, but with this snow you never know what is going to happen. I would like to be a little closer than I am right now.
anyone mental ups
I don't think anyone really understands my mental ups and downs.
combined gives good normal skiers speed super
Any kind of combined is cool. I think the super combined is pretty good because it's just a one-run slalom and it gives the speed skiers a better chance. I think the super-combined is something that will stay. For me, it's better than the normal combined with the two-run slalom.
ended sad steep tough
It was pretty sad that it ended so early. I feel kind of empty. You have to go all out if you're going to win. It was pretty tough in that steep part.
allowed games needed olympic people run second smooth start time trying
Every time at the Olympic games it's always something. Today, in the second run it was smooth but first run, people who should not be allowed at the start are at the start trying to do something, I don't know what. This isn't right. I needed them. It shouldn't be this way.
bad coming good hard lake louise week
Coming into this week was pretty hard because Lake Louise was not so good for me. I just had so much bad luck.
favorite great hell perfect skiing
It's perfect for me that she's the favorite. She's skiing great right now and skied a hell of a lot better than me. She can take the favorite role. I don't mind.
