Alpine skiing (sometimes referred to as downhill skiing) is one of the signature competitions at the Winter Olympics. Competitors regularly reach speeds of up to 152km/h (95mph), all while navigating a winding course full of sharp turns and soaring jumps.

There are 11 events in the Alpine competition at the Games, with 33 medals up for grabs.

The Alpine competition will take place at the National Alpine Ski Centre in the Yanqing competition zone.
