Carina Vogt's Sochi 2014 Profile

Carina Vogt, born February 5, 1992, in Schwäbisch Gmünd, is a ski jumper. She won the first Olympic gold medal ever awarded for women's ski jumping, at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games, for Germany.

Vogt, a trained police officer who became interested in ski jumping when she became mesmerized by it on TV as a four-year-old, entered the Games in Sochi somewhat of an underdog but performed to her best when it counted.
