}} Peter Fill (born 12 November 1982) is a World Cup alpine ski racer from Brixen, South Tyrol, Italy. ==Career== Fill is an all-round skier. In the 2007 season, Fill was among the overall leaders for the overall World Cup title, the first Italian since Alberto Tomba to rank in the overall top ten. Fill learned to ski at the age of 3 with the help of his first teacher Frieda Senoner. He achieved his first successes during his middle-school years, while he was coached by Peter Thomaseth. In 1997/98 he joined the Seiser Alm training center, where he was coached by his uncle Arnold. In the same year he joined the B-Pool of the Bolzano-Bozen ski team (coached by Sepp Steinwandter). One year later he advanced to the A-Pool under Stephan Feichter. In 1999, he won every discipline at the National Junior Championships and returned home with four gold medals; he was called "the phenomenon" by the Italian press.〔http://archiviostorico.gazzetta.it/1999/febbraio/27/DOMINIO_FILL_ga_0_9902279264.shtml〕 In 2000, Fill joined the national team for the first time. His coach was Ernst Pfeifhofer, who continued as his coach for the following year in the Italian B-Team. At the same time he became a member of the Carabinieri sportsgroup. In 2001, as a junior, he achieved his first important success on an international level, a bronze medal in the super-G at the Alpine Ski World Championship. In 2002/03 he was part of the A-Team of Flavio Roda for the first time. In February 2002, Fill won the World Juniors and, as a result, took part in his first super-G race of World Cup on 7 March 2002 at Altenmarkt in Austria, where he placed an impressive 12th outpacing the Norwegian Lasse Kjus by one hundredth of a second. While Fill's strengths are the downhill and super-G, he is also competitive in the technical disciplines. On 13 January 2006 he stood 3rd on the Ski World Cup podium of the super combined race in Wengen (Switzerland). During the 2005/2006 and 2006/2007 seasons, Fill achieved great results, reaching the podium 7 times: 4 times in downhill and twice in super-G, unfortunately without winning any of these competitions. On March 21, 2007, he became Italian Champion in multiple disciplines (twice in super-G and once in giant slalom), bringing his career total of national championships to 3. During the 2007/2008 season he was unable to reach the podium but managed to place in the top ten 10 on six occasions. On 29 November 2008 in Lake Louise (Canada) he won his first World Cup competition, beating Swiss Carlo Janka and Swede Hans Olsson, becoming the seventh Italian in World Cup history to win a downhill competition. On 4 February 2009, he won the silver medal in super-G during the World Championships in Val-d'Isère (France) on the icy and steep slope ''Face del Bellevarde''. He managed to place himself before the three-time World Champion Aksel Lund Svindal, but was not fast enough to beat the Swiss Didier Cuche. His medal was the only one won by the ''Azzurri'' in the men's competitions. Celebrations were organized in his hometown of Kastelruth congratulate him on his excellent result. Fill was picked up at his home and brought by horse to the town's square, where he joined up with the mayor, his uncle Norbert Rier (leader of the folk music group the Kastelruther Spatzen), his family and fans.〔http://www.peter-fill.com/14-e_221257.ski,r_23813.htm〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peter Fill」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
