2010 Winter Olympics Results Alpine Skiing Men’s Downhill: Didier Defago Takes Gold as American Bode Miller Settles for Bronze
The highly anticipated alpine skiing men’s downhill event at the 2010 Winter Olympics went off on Monday with Switzerland’s Didier Defago taking the gold with an impressive run that had him finishing at 1:54.31.
While Defago earned Switzerland’s second gold medal of the Games the big story of the men’s downhill was the run by American Bode Miller who finished on the podium with a bronze medal. A disastrous 2006 Winter Olympics left him off the podium for the downhill but he took a step toward redemption on Monday with a run of 1:54.40.
Sandwiched between Defago and Miller was Norway’s Aksel Lund Svindal whose 1:54.38 was good enough for silver, his first Olympic medal.
