Episode 507 - Alex Ferlazzo Pre-Milano Cortina Interview
Description
Aussie luger Alex Ferlazzo is a true icon of winter sports down under, the first Australian to compete in three Olympic Games in luge, most recently at Beijing 2022. There, he made history with a 16th-place finish, the highest ever by an Australian luger at the Olympics. Since then, Alex has gone from strength to strength, with multiple top-ten World Cup results and a record-breaking fifth place at the 2024 World Championships, which was the best result ever by an Australian luger at any international competition. As we welcome Alex back to the show, he reflects on that history-making run in China, the momentum it created, and how it’s fuelled his pursuit of even greater success on the world stage. We also check in on his preparations for a fourth Olympic Games in Italy next year, and the ambitious goals he’s set to rewrite the record books yet again. Strap in: this is an epic chat you won’t want to miss!
