Patrick Feurstein (born December 1, 1996) is an Austrian World Cup alpine ski racer who specializes in giant slalom.
Feurstein was raised in the village of Mellau. He debuted as a junior on December 6, 2011. He competed in his first world cup race on December 19, 2018, at Saalbach-Hinterglemm. A few weeks later, he managed to achieve his first top 30 result, finishing 29th at the giant slalom at Adelboden, but would be later disqualified. The same happened at the slalom two years later at the same location.[1]
He had to leave out on the following 2020/21 season due to suffering from chronic headache, caused by a Neuritis.[2] Feurstein scored his first world cup points on November 14, 2021, at the parallel race at Lech-Zürs. His best result of the season came at the giant slalom of Alta Badia where he finished fourth, narrowly missing out on a podium finish. He would finish second with the Austrian team at the team event at the season finale in Méribel.
On September 10, 2024, Feurstein narrowly avoided a crash with a course worker while competing at the South American Cup at Cerro Castor.[3]
He attained his first World Cup podium on December 14, 2024, in giant slalom at Val d'Isère, France, making up 22 positions after the first run.
