"Except for my mother, everyone in the family had the virus": Tanguy Nef's confession

The Swiss talent of the slalom has overcome a difficult moment and, in an interview granted to "Blick", he told his decidedly atypical career.

Tanguy Nef was one of the most beautiful surprises of the world slalom, in a 2019/2020 season that saw him approaching the podium decisively, in particular with the 6th place of Madonna di Campiglio and the 8th of Wengen ( in the middle, also a great first heat in Adelboden). There is a particular story behind this 23 year old who, together with Daniel Yule and Ramon Zenhaeusern, forms a decidedly competitive Swiss team among the rapid gates, definitely a rarity for the red and blue tradition in the discipline. Joined in Verbier by his colleagues from the "Blick", who interviewed him exclusively, Nef confessed to having spent decidedly tough weeks, given that the whole family had been affected by the Coronavirus. “Only my mother was an exception, I realized it a few days after the wonderful party of my fan club in Verbier - he said - when I felt a slight headache and severe muscle pain. I did the test as well as my brother and we tested positive ". The hypothesis indicated by the Swiss newspaper is that many Milanese families have stayed in the same Verbier in their respective holiday homes, creating a small outbreak in the ski resort of the Canton of Valais.
