Olympic moguls skier Andi Naude announces retirement

VANCOUVER — Canadian moguls skier Andi Naude has announced her retirement.

The 23-year-old from Penticton, B.C., placed sixth in women's moguls at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea.

Naude won 10 World Cup moguls and dual moguls medals, and competed in three world championships, during her seven-year career.

She placed in the World Cup's top five overall rankings in each of her last four seasons from 2015 to 2018.

Naude is studying veterinary medicine at Royal Veterinary College in England.

"It made my decision to retire a whole lot easier, because I am focusing on something I love just as much as moguls skiing," Naude said Wednesday in a statement from Freestyle Canada.
