There's 3 bronze medals now ready for Cory's trophy case back home! After earning a Bronze in Giant Slalom on Thursday, Cory took 3rd place in both the Super G and Slalom on Friday, at Marmot Basin Ski Resort near Jasper, Alberta.
He really did race the races of his life this week - particularly in the Super G and Slalom, where he skied aggressively and confidently and was less than 2 seconds out of second place. The top two racers each won Gold and Silver respectively in all three races, and the Gold medalist of course is the reigning world champion.
Cory will return to Edmonton on Saturday where he will take part in the Closing Ceremonies, then return to Vancouver airport around noon on Sunday.
We'll update with video and photos next week.
The story of a 36-year-old man with autism and a passion for ski racing, and his dream-come-true of representing Canada at Special Olympics World Winter Games. In March 2025, Cory competed for Canada at the World Winter Games in Turin & Sestriere, Italy. And he won all 3 of his races, taking Gold in Slalom, Giant Slalom, and Super Giant Slalom! A 3 Time Olympic Gold Medalist!
