There will be no Wendy Holdener (and Corinne Suter too), injured in her wrists and forced to pit for a few weeks, before attempting to return for Levi, and the presence of Michelle Gisin remains in doubt.
So the Swiss-Ski women's team launches towards Soelden and the first giant of the 2021/22 World Cup: ten called up for Saturday's opening on the Rettenbach, but with a final decision still to be taken regarding the third ranking of the general classification 2020/21, recovering after the mononucleosis that hit her in the summer, but still with a few km in the legs compared to her colleagues, and to Andrea Ellenberger herself.
Few doubts, on the other hand, about Lara Gut-Behrami, who will be the tip of the red-cross team and one of the great favorites for the possible trio in Soelden, where the Ticino has already won in 2013 and 2016, in this second case for the last his pearl in a giant of CdM (but last February the world title arrived in Cortina).
He finally seeks continuity after solving the physical problems Mélanie Meillard, who could be in the 30 of the starting list, while the other Swiss protagonists will have high pectorals, namely Simone Wild, Camille Rast, Vanessa Kasper, Vivianne Haerri (born in 1999 at the second giant in CdM after last March in Jasna), Jasmina Suter and Priska Nufer.
