Sami Jauhojärvi

Winter Sports

Sami Jauhojärvi, born on 5 May 1981, is a Finnish former cross-country skier who competed between 2000 and 2017. At the 2014 Winter Olympics he won the men's team sprint with Iivo Niskanen; Germany protested the result because of a final-leg collision between Jauhojärvi and Tim Tscharnke, but the jury rejected the protest. He won his first medal at the 2009 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in Liberec, a bronze in the team sprint with Ville Nousiainen, and then added a second in the 4 x 10 km relay. His one World Cup victory was the 50 km classic mass start in Trondheim in 2009, and he was the 2001 Junior World champion in the 30 km freestyle.
