Leonie Fiebig, winner of World Cups with Germany, says she’s now racing for USA Bobsled
Leaving Germany's bobsled team, Leonie Fiebig, a 29-time major international medalist, will now compete for Team USA starting this season. The 36-year-old, who earned her medals in World Cup and world championship competitions, made the announcement a month ahead of the current World Cup schedule. Fiebig, a push athlete, teamed up with Kim Kalicki to win Germany's 2023 two-woman world title and also helped her country secure nine World Cup race golds.
Although her selection for Germany's 2020 Olympic team was not made, Fiebig remains hopeful about her future with the U.S. team.
