Biography

Born in Bruneck, Innerhofer lives in Gais, South Tyrol. He made his World Cup debut at age 21 in November 2006, and won his first race in December 2008, a downhill {{nowrap|at Bormio.{{cite web |url=http://www.gazzetta.it/Sport_Vari/Sport_Invernali/Sci/Primo_Piano/2008/12_Dicembre/28/innerhofer_2812.shtml |title=Bormio, trionfo azzurro Prima volta per Innerhofer – Gazzetta dello Sport |publisher=Gazzetta.it |access-date=9 February 2014}}}}

At the 2011 World Championships in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, Innerhofer won a medal of each color: gold in super-G, silver in super combined, and bronze in downhill.[http://www.skiracing.com/?q=node/9358 Ski Racing.com] – Innerhofer grabs Super-G gold at Worlds – 10 February 2011.[http://www.skiracing.com/?q=node/9373 Ski Racing.com] – Svindal defends Super-combi gold at Worlds – 14 February 2011.[http://www.skiracing.com/?q=node/9368 Ski Racing.com] – Canada retains World DH title as Guay takes gold – 12 February 2011. At the first World Cup race following the World Championships, Innerhofer won the super combined at Bansko, Bulgaria. The race was unusual in that the slalom portion was run first, in anticipation of fog; the afternoon speed run was a super-G, rather than a downhill.[http://www.skiracing.com/?q=node/9421 Ski Racing.com] – Innerhofer edges Neureuther for Cup win, Ligety fourth – 26 February 2011.
