Evi Sachenbacher-Stehle

Evi Sachenbacher-Stehle, born 27 November 1980 in Traunstein and from Reit im Winkl, is a retired German cross-country skier and biathlete. In three Winter Olympics as a cross-country skier she won five medals, two gold (the 2002 relay and the 2010 team sprint) and three silver, and she won six medals at the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships. She was given a five-day suspension at the 2006 Games for a high hemoglobin level. From the 2012/13 season she switched to biathlon, reached the World Cup and finished fourth in the mass start at Sochi 2014, but a positive test for methylhexanamine there annulled her results and led to a two-year ban that the Court of Arbitration for Sport cut to six months, after which she retired.
