Born February 23, 1988 in Toulouse, then turned 31 yesterday, and resident Courchevel, the French made her debut in the Circus Rosa on October 22, 2005 at only 17 years in the giant of Soelden. Arrived twice eighth downhill at the Junior World Championships in 2006 and 2007, due to the thousands injuries suffered and which is impossible to summarize (the last of which on the eve of the PyeongChang 2018 Games) had to specialize in slalom and giant but possessing strong Combatist skills, so much so that the only podium to his credit in the World Cup is the third place in the Soldeu multiple race of 28 February 2016. E 'has arrived eleven times in the top ten, a goal that has never reached in three participations in the Olympics and five in the Senior World Championships (best result the eleventh podium in the combined February 8 in Are).
He won four European Cup races, two giants, one slalom and one combined, the latter last 7 December in Kvitfjell, climbing five more times on the podium. Probably the injuries did not allow her to get better results and this winter she played only three races of the World Cup not finishing even one, certainly not the best way to close the career, but has always competed and above all the difficult moments with smile, that smile, as he told L'Equipe, who will perform (and exhibited) even today on the day of farewell to international competitive skiing. The definitive one will arrive next month, when the World Cup season ends will play the French championships. To Anne-Sophie a big good luck for his life outside the races.
