À propos de cet audio
Lauren Macuga’s profile has never burned brighter. In the past few days, Lauren—only 23 and already a name every ski racing fan recognizes—continues to electrify the slopes and capture headline attention. On January 12, she starred in Austria’s FIS Alpine Ski World Cup, where NBC Olympics covered her podium celebration in the women’s super-G. Lauren, always ready with that infectious bucket hat smile, managed to combine focused athleticism with a trademark splash of fun, fueling optimism within the U.S. Ski Team and charming the crowds.
Her family’s competitive streak, all four siblings competing at the elite level, runs as deep as her own ambition. This week, TownLift picked up the story of her “weird dance moves” after clinching bronze in her world championships debut super-G—a performance celebrated with exuberant motion and a quick bow to the Austrian crowd. Lauren herself told reporters she never expected a medal in her very first major championship race, but seized the energy of the moment with a flourish. Lindsey Vonn, present at the event, lavished praise, marveling at Macuga’s “free-spirited” authenticity and grit, and predicting that this is just the beginning of her headline-making career.
The Macuga siblings remain in the limelight together, with Allie Macuga competing in Utah, Sam ski jumping in New York, and Daniel grinding it out on the Nor-Am circuit. Lauren, ever the family touchstone, recounted to AGSA.org the joys of a “full-blown family celebration” for her first World Cup win in St. Anton—a moment so significant it’s already being compared to the emergence of Lindsey Vonn. Sam Macuga’s Instagram post crowned Lauren a “legend, a fashion icon, AND A WORLD CUP WINNER,” and Daniel chimed in on the ongoing quest for a helmet sponsor, highlighting Lauren’s tongue-in-cheek question mark sticker where a brand’s logo ought to be.
On the business and community side, there’s big movement just this weekend: According to Park Record on October 31, Lauren and her sister Allie have both been named official brand ambassadors for the Youth Sports Alliance, reinforcing her growing influence off the slopes. On the social circuit, Lauren and Lindsey Vonn appeared together at the U.S. Ski & Snowboard’s Gold Medal Gala in New York, and Macuga’s story of cherishing a signed Vonn racing suit tugged at heartstrings and made for viral Instagram content.
No confirmed major headlines or race wins have emerged in the last 24 hours, but Lauren remains hotly tipped ahead of the Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski Team’s season kick-off in Sölden this November, with U.S. Ski & Snowboard spotlighting her as one of the country's most exciting prospects. Between viral dance moves, a breakout world championship, social media buzz, and her visible commitment to youth sports, Lauren Macuga is rewriting what it means to be both an elite athlete and a fan favorite.
