Erik Guay strikes gold!

Erik Guay has done a really great performance today. Guay has won the Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany downhill event. Guay was half a second faster than second place skier Andrej Jerman. Didier Cuche finished 3rd.

For the first time in 13 years a canadian has won a downhill event on the world cup of skiing. The last canadian athlete to achieve such a performance was Cary Millen in 1994 at Aspen, Colorado.

Congratulations Erik!
