Atle Lie McGrath knows this Olympic moment will sting for some time. Reflecting on the crushing end to his gold-medal pursuit in Monday’s alpine skiing men’s slalom, in which he failed to finish his second run and tossed his poles in frustration, the Norwegian athlete likened the series of unfortunate events to the “worst moment” of his career, all the while grappling with personal heartache. “It’s not the worst moment of my life, but it’s the worst moment of my career, and it’s been one of the toughest moments of my life with everything that’s been going on,” the 25-year-old McGrath said, according to People.
