Career

Vickhoff Lie made her World Cup debut at age 18 in January 2017, and has competed in two World Championships, in 2019 and 2021.[1]

She won gold medals in downhill and super-G at the Junior World Championships at Davos in 2018.[2][3]

Vickhoff Lie was airlifted to hospital after suffering a left leg injury during the women's super-G World Cup race at Val di Fassa, Italy on 28 February 2021.[4] She was thrown off the course after catching an edge and landed awkwardly in the safety nets.[5]

In February 2023, she won her first world championships medal, taking bronze in super-G at Méribel, France.[6] Her first World Cup victory came a few weeks later in a downhill at Kvitfjell, Norway. That victory was the first ever World Cup Downhill win for the Norwegian Women's team. [7]
