Winter Sports legend
Here comes the second edition of famous German athletes. The first one was a male football player from Munich. In our second edition we introduce a young lady (just 30 years old) that already retired.
Magdalena Neuner is the most successful woman of all time at Biathlon World Championships and a two-time Olympic gold medalist - and she is Bavarian!
Magdalena Neuner
Biathlon is very popular in Germany. The combination of cross-country skiing and shooting is very interesting. I watch as many races as possible during the Winter Time. Magdalena is a special person. Being that successful is one thing but her attitude and presence in the public is outstanding. She always had a smile straight after a tough race - a perfect figurehead for Sports in Germany. I have been sad when she decided to retire in March 2012, citing a lack of motivation and her desire for a normal life. But we had to accept it, she then became married and is a proud mom of two in the meantime!

Yeah she was a dominating lady - you could say without penalty in shooting it was no way that she would miss a victory!

She's beautiful woman. Do you know something about her descent? Her name sounds polish.

Thanks for commenting - Magdalena is a very common name in the south of Germany - it seems she is from German descent only

Magdalena hat ihren Absprung in ihr Privatleben genau zum richtigen Zeitpunkt gemacht, nämlich sofort, nachdem si alles erreicht hatte, was in ihrem Sport möglich ist. Das zeigt mir: Sie hat auch noch Verstand und Weitsicht.
