  • Sandra Naeslund has -150 odds to win the women’s ski cross gold medal.
  • Naeslund is the number one ranked women’s ski cross skier in the world.

MILAN – The Women’s Ski Cross event qualifiers are set to begin on Friday morning, with odds to win the gold medal already posted.

At first glance, it is Sandra Naeslund of Sweden who is heavily favored to win the event outright on legal sports betting sites. She is the only participant with odds under even money and one of just four with odds to win under +1000.

Women’s Ski Cross Gold Medal Odds

  • Sandra Naeslund (SWE) -150
  • Daniela Maier (GER) +400
  • Fanny Smith (SUI) +550
  • Marielle Berger Sabbatel (FRA) +850
  • Marielle Thompson (CAN) +1000
  • Jole Galli (ITA) +1100

Grab The Value On Naeslund Quick

There is no reason to look anywhere other than Sandra Naeslund’s Winter Olympic odds to win the Ski Cross event. Naeslund is currently the number one ranked ski cross skier in the world according to the FIS with 668 points.

The odds line up with the rest of the world ranking, as Naeslund leads Daniela Maier, Marielle Berger Sabbatel, and Fanny Smith in the world rankings in that order.

All time throughout her career, Naeslund has been deemed the number one ranked skier in ski cross in five years since 2012, and now in three of the last five years. Neither Marielle Berger Sabbatel nor Daniela Maier have ever claimed the top ranking in their careers thus far, while Fanny Smith has done so four times.

As for Naeslund’s gold medal count, she’s claimed five at the pro level, including four at the world championships and one at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.

At -150 odds, a $150 wager would net $100 in profit if she were to win the gold medal.
