Canadian-born freestyle skier Begg-Smith wins in the first moguls event of the World Cup held in Canada. It’s his seventh world cup win and ninth podium placing for eleven events of his career.

And I quote,

The Olympic Winter Games gold medal winner scored 25.74 points for a narrow victory over French skier Guilbaut Colas on 25.59 points and Alexandre Bilodeau from Canada on 25.55 points. - The Australian

Wikipedia states, Begg-Smith won the gold medal for his adopted country Australia in the men’s moguls event at the 2006 Winter Olympics held in Turin, Italy. He is only the third Australian to win a gold medal in a Winter Games. In the lead-up to the 2006 Winter Games, Dale Begg-Smith had won three World Cup rounds and was ranked world number one in the moguls discipline.

This is one guy that seems to have it all. Why do I say that? He also happens to be a multi-millionaire!

Ack. Is he married…?!

Kidding. Kidding.
