CASINO 2000 continues its podcast series En Toute Intimité with a new episode dedicated to Matthieu Osch, a leading figure in Luxembourg’s alpine skiing scene and a three-time Winter Olympian.
Produced in partnership with the COSL, of which CASINO 2000 is a proud partner, this interview highlights the career of an athlete who represents Luxembourg at the world’s biggest international competitions.
From his first runs to the Olympic Games
How does one become a top-level skier when growing up in a country without mountains?
In this episode, Matthieu Osch looks back on how his passion for skiing began, the sacrifices required to improve, his move abroad to benefit from the best training conditions, and the vital role played by his family throughout his journey.
He also discusses his daily life as an elite athlete within the Luxembourgish army and the discipline required by a career focused on high performance.
Three Olympic Games and a unique experience
Having served as Luxembourg’s flag-bearer at just 18 years of age at the 2018 PyeongChang Games, Matthieu Osch has since competed in three editions of the Winter Olympics, right up to Milan-Cortina 2026.
Speaking on the podcast, he reflects on the emotions he experienced during these major events, how his approach to top-level sport has evolved, and how he now views his most recent Olympic performances.
A conversation that offers a deeper understanding of what lies behind those few seconds of competition: years of preparation, precision and perseverance.
The values of elite sport
Beyond the results, Matthieu Osch shares his vision of sport and the Olympic spirit.
In particular, he discusses his commitment to charity through the auction of the suit he wore at the Milan-Cortina 2026 Games, with proceeds going to an NGO, as well as the values that guide him in his daily life, both on and off the slopes.
The challenges ahead
The episode concludes with a look to the future.
Summer training, upcoming sporting goals, the constant quest for improvement and thoughts on life after his career: Matthieu Osch speaks candidly about the challenges that lie ahead and how he is shaping the next stage of his journey.
