Wind whisperer: US skier Nyman 3rd in Olympic downhill test (The Associated Press)

Steven Nyman couldn’t have picked a better place to post his first podium result of the season: on the downhill course that will be used for the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics. The American skier finished third behind Kjetil Jansrud of Norway and Dominik Paris of Italy on Saturday in the opening test event for the next Winter Games. ”Coming here and feeling very positive about the hill is something that will really excite me for two years for now,” Nyman said.
