Skiing career

At the beginning of her career, her preference was for the downhill. However, by the age of 19 she had already undergone 5 knee surgeries, prompting her to concentrate instead on the less dangerous slalom and giant slalom competitions.

World Championships

At the 2003 World Championships in St. Moritz, Switzerland, she placed second in the slalom behind Janica Kostelić, and in 2005 at Bormio, Italy, she won a bronze medal in the combined, behind Janica Kostelić and Anja Pärson. In 2007 at Åre, Sweden, Schild won silver in the slalom and bronze in the combined. In team events she won gold 2007 in Åre and silver at the 2011 World Championships in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, with the Austrian team.

Olympics

At the 2006 Winter Olympic Games in Turin, she won a silver medal in women's combined and a bronze medal in the women's slalom event. In the giant slalom, she placed 17th. In the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, she improved to another silver in the slalom. She also competed at the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake, but did not finish the slalom event.[1]

She is currently engaged to Austrian ski racer Benjamin Raich.[2]
