Alpine skiing at the 2014 Winter Olympics was held in Russia from 9–22 February at Rosa Khutor Alpine Resort near Krasnaya Polyana, east of Sochi.[1]
The following is the competition schedule for all ten events.[2]
All times are (UTC+4).
Several age records in alpine skiing were set at these Olympic Games:
A maximum of 320 (later adjusted to 350 by the International Ski Federation) quota spots were available to athletes to compete at the games. A maximum of 22 athletes could be entered by a National Olympic Committee, with a maximum of 14 men or 14 women. There were two qualification standards for the games: an A standard and a B standard.[8]
327 athletes from 74 nations were scheduled to participate, with number of athletes in parentheses. Only 319 athletes competed in actual competition as the other 8 athletes suffered injuries during training. Four nations qualified for the Winter Olympics for the first time, and hence competed in alpine skiing for the first time as well: Malta, Timor-Leste, Togo and Zimbabwe.[9] Both Venezuela and Thailand made their Olympic debuts in the sport. One of Thailand's skiers was world-renowned concert violinist "Vanessa-Mae" Vanakorn.[10] India's athletes initially competed as Independent Olympic Participants, as the Indian Olympic Association was suspended by the International Olympic Committee,[11] but the suspension had since been lifted.[12]
