Overview
- Swiss Olympic named Gregor Deschwanden, Sandro Hauswirth and Felix Trunz to the Milan–Cortina squad, excluding the 44-year-old four-time champion.
- Quota changes that expanded the women’s field and cut the team event to two jumpers left Switzerland with only three men’s places.
- Both Ammann and Trunz met Swiss-Ski benchmarks with two World Cup top-25 finishes, though Ammann led slightly in the overall standings.
- Evaluations included the Skiflug World Championships in Oberstdorf, where both exited the individual early and Trunz impressed more in the team event.
- Chef de mission Ralph Stöckli praised Ammann as a legend and described the choice as sport-based and future-oriented, while Ammann has not issued a detailed reaction.
