Rosa Katharina ("Rosi") Mittermaier-Neureuther (born  August 5, 1950 in Reit im Winkl ) is a former German ski racer .

After nine years in the Alpine Ski World Cup , she won two gold medals in downhill and slalom as well as the silver medal in giant slalom at the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck . In the same winter, she won the overall ranking of the World Cup and then ended her active career.

Even after the end of her career, Mittermaier remained popular and was present in the media together with her husband Christian Neureuther as an advertising medium, sports ambassador and non-fiction author . In May 2008 she was the first female winter athlete to be inducted into the newly established Hall of Fame of German Sports .

career

Beginnings and World Cup victories (until 1975)

Mittermaier grew up on the Winklmoos-Alm in the Chiemgau Alps and started skiing at the age of six. While at school she was trained by her father and won local school and youth races. In two skiing accidents at the age of twelve, she first broke an ankle, shortly before healing, the lower leg on the same leg and could not ski for several months. In the following winters she took part in German youth championships and trained with the national team for the first time in autumn 1965. From the 1966/67 season Mittermaier started internationally and also competed in the Alpine Ski World Cup, which was held for the first time . In the same year she won her first German championship in combination , which was followed by thirteen other national titles in combination and in the technical disciplines of slalom and giant slalom by 1973 . Mittermaier also established herself in the World Cup as the best female athlete in the German team trained by Klaus Mayr : In the highest competition series in alpine skiing, she was among the top three in the slalom of Aspen in March 1968 and won her with the slalom of Schruns in January 1969 first race. In the overall standings, she consistently achieved positions in the top fifteen from 1968 to 1975, and from 1972 she was always among the top seven athletes (with third place in the winter of 1974/75 as the best result for the time being). It decided other slalom competitions for itself and took second place in the 1973 and 1974 slalom rankings.

In her autobiography Mittermaier later wrote that at the beginning of her career she measured herself primarily against the somewhat younger French woman Michèle Jacot . Jacot, who won the overall World Cup in 1970 and was combined world champion, was one of the petite and light ski racers in the field, like Mittermaier, who is 1.63 meters tall and weighs 54 kilograms. Mittermaier attributed the different driving styles among the World Cup runners to body size, among other things. Mittermaier regarded parallel skiing with closed ski guides as characteristic of his own style . With the comparatively close approach to the goal posts, she had taken a higher risk of failure by threaders than the more wide-legged athletes, including the Austrian Annemarie Pröll (from her wedding in 1973: Moser-Pröll). Pröll succeeded Jacot as the overall World Cup winner, won this rating five times in a row from 1971 to 1975 and was viewed by Mittermaier as a “born type of winner”. In the 1975 season Mittermaier was the only major rival for Moser-Pröll, but broke her left arm in a training accident in Axamer Lizum (a collision with a tourist) in February and was out for most of the rest of the season.

While Mittermaier regularly achieved places in the top three in the World Cup - up to 1975 in 28 races - she initially consistently missed the medal ranks at major events. At the Olympic Winter Games she first started at the age of 17 in 1968 in Grenoble , where she finished 20th in the giant slalom as the best result. Four years later in Sapporo she reached the top ten only in the downhill (the sub-discipline in which she achieved the weakest results in the World Cup) as sixth. At the 1970 World Championships in Val Gardena she was eliminated in the second slalom run after she had occupied third place in the first run; in 1974 in St. Moritz she was sixth in slalom. Later, Mittermaier attributed her lack of success at World Championships and Olympic Games primarily to poor concentration.

Success in the overall World Cup and double Olympic victory (1975/76)

At the age of 25, Mittermaier was one of the oldest and most experienced athletes in the World Cup at the beginning of the 1975/76 season , the climax of which was the Winter Olympics in Innsbruck. After the games, she said that in view of the approaching end of her career, she “finally wanted to achieve more” and therefore pursued intensive summer training for the first time. Lise-Marie Morerod from Switzerland, who was six years younger than her, became her main competitor after Moser-Pröll announced her retirement from active sport at the beginning of winter. By the end of January, Morerod had won six of the twelve slalom and giant slalom competitions, in which Mittermaier finished second. Mittermaier won the combination of Cortina in December and the slalom in Bad Gastein on January 22nd, where the day before she had finished last among 54 participants in the downhill. Since her results in the downhill were still better than the Morerods, Mittermaier took the clear lead in the overall World Cup ahead of the Swiss woman at an early stage. After two more victories at the end of the season in March, she won the rating with 281 against Morerods 214 points.

At the Olympic Winter Games in Innsbruck in February 1976, Mittermaier won a medal in all three alpine skiing competitions : on February 8, she won the descent with half a second ahead of Brigitte Totschnig , becoming the first German female ski racer since Heidi Biebl in 1960 an Olympic gold medal - Mittermaier had never won the World Cup in a downhill race before. Three days later, she also won the slalom with the fastest time in the second run, after her teammate Pamela Behr had initially been in the lead. In the final giant slalom on February 13th, she finished second, twelve hundredths of a second behind Canadian Kathy Kreiner . Mittermaier's Olympic successes also counted as World Championship medals, since the Olympic races between 1948 and 1980 were also considered Alpine World Ski Championships . Here she also won the title in the non-Olympic combination, which was calculated from the results of the other three races. Mittermaier was the only gold medalist from the entire German Olympic team from 1976 . Together with the Soviet cross-country skier Raissa Smetanina , she had the most successful medal record of all participants.

Mittermaier's last ski race was a giant slalom in Tärnaby, Sweden, two months after her Olympic victories and one month after winning the overall world cup in April 1976 . On May 31, 1976, she announced her resignation from active skiing at a press conference.

Advertising appearances and social engagement (since 1976)

Simultaneously with their career end was Mittermaier a contract with the US sports agency International Management Group of Mark McCormack known. She was the only German in a row with athletes like the skier Jean-Claude Killy , the Formula 1 world champion Jackie Stewart or the Wimbledon winner Björn Borg . During the three-year contract, which was endowed with two million marks, she designed a winter sports collection, advertised ski items, among other things, and spent a large part of the time with international advertising events. Mittermaier was also medically involved in the ski gymnastics series Tele-Ski of the Bavarian broadcasting company in the late 1970s, and later she co-commented on the Olympic ski races for the sports broadcaster Eurosport in 1992 and 1994 . Together with her husband Christian Neureuther , she ran a sports shop in Garmisch-Partenkirchen and a country inn in Reit im Winkl . The couple published various books, including a Nordic walking guide in 2006 and a guide with snowshoe tours in 2012.

In 1997 Mittermaier-Neureuther was appointed national ambassador for sport, tolerance and fair play. She is involved in many different ways for good causes, took over the patronage of the newly established German Children's Rheumatism Foundation in 1999 and is an ambassador for the initiative against bone loss. As a supporter of the Christoffel Blind Mission , she and her husband traveled to Nepal and Tanzania, among others. In addition, the couple promoted Munich's ultimately failed applications for the 2018 and 2022 Winter Games .

Personal

Mittermaier is the daughter of the businessman Heinrich Mittermaier (1911–2009) and the cook Rosa Mittermaier, who initially ran an inn on the Winklmoos-Alm and later a dormitory. Her father was a state-certified ski instructor, ran his own ski school from 1966 and promoted the ski careers of his daughters Heidi , Rosi and Evi Mittermaier . Heidi (* 1941) and Evi (* 1953) were also among the top national skiers and each took part in the Olympic Games and World Championships several times. While Heidi Mittermaier ended her career in 1966 before Rosi competed at international level, the two younger sisters competed in the World Cup together from 1974 to 1976. Rosi Mittermaier's twin sister Helene died in childbirth.

Mittermaier attended elementary and secondary school in Reit im Winkl, where in the first three school years she mostly lived with a foster family in the village because of the long way to school. She then completed an apprenticeship as a hotel manager with her parents, but never worked in the profession. On June 7, 1980 she married the ski racer Christian Neureuther , with whom she had a long friendship since the beginning of her career and who advised her during her active time. The couple has two children, the fashion designer Ameli Neureuther (* 1981) and Felix Neureuther (* 1984), who also won several world championship medals as a ski racer.

In addition to skiing, Mittermaier pursued other sports as hobbies. In her autobiography from 1976, she named skydiving first, followed by diving. In the spring of 1973 she injured herself while surfing in Hawaii and missed the end of the season and the possible victory in the Slalom World Cup. She later turned to Nordic Walking and was one of the most prominent representatives of the sport together with her husband in the 2000s.

Public image and appreciation

Mittermaier's Olympic victories established great public popularity that lasted well beyond her active sporting career. Gold-Rosi established itself as a nickname often used by the media and fans . After her successes from Innsbruck she received 40,000 fan letters within one month. The Mittermaiers parental home on the Winklmoos-Alm experienced such high visitor numbers that the family has meanwhile moved to the first floor to protect their privacy.

Mittermaier is considered down-to-earth and in her biography she was credited with being "probably the most natural [superstar] there has ever been in the field of sports". Her husband described her as a “competitive athlete without ambition”, she said herself that she did not like “[t] this whole dogged, extreme”. During her active time, Mittermaier saw her fellow travelers as friends and took mutual support and assistance for granted. In retrospect, Herbert Riehl-Heyse described her in the Süddeutsche Zeitung as a “friendly Bavarian village girl” with natural charm and charisma, who had developed into “something like [the] Miss Federal Republic”. Der Spiegel presented the "always happy [...]" Mittermaier as a contrast to the "sober [m] professionalism" shaped athlete type in skiing in later decades. The Mittermaier-Neureuther couple, who often appear together - for example in television shows - are considered to be a scandal-free "model couple" and a "well-rehearsed team" in which Neureuther takes on the role of entertainer and Mittermaier appears rather calm.

The German sports journalists voted Mittermaier as Sportswoman of the Year 1976, the International Association of Ski Journalists (AIJS) awarded her the Skieur d'Or in the same year . As the successor of Ulrike Meyfarth , she also received the Bravo Otto in gold in the sportswoman category in 1976 . Already in 1974 she had taken second place in this category behind Meyfarth. The highest road tunnel in Europe in the Ötztal Alps , opened in 1982, was named after her Rosi-Mittermaier-Tunnel . In 2004 Mittermaier took part in the election of the Federal President for the CSU as a member of the 12th Federal Assembly . She also received several orders and medals awarded by the Free State of Bavaria - including the Bavarian Order of Merit 2007 - and in 2019, together with her husband, the honorary citizenship of Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Eight years earlier she had acted as the central ambassador for the Alpine World Ski Championships taking place in the community .

In 2001, the Deutsche Sporthilfe Foundation honored Mittermaier with the second Golden Sports Pyramid, and particularly emphasized her social commitment. As one of 40 founding members - and initially the only female winter athlete - she was inducted into the Hall of Fame of German Sports in 2008. On the occasion of this, the sports journalist Wolfgang Uhrig counted her among the "folk heroes who gave or give the people and thus the people a certain pride in their nation".
