Slalom ace becomes a father for the first time - dropped from the World Cup team two years ago. The baby's name is also known.

Reto Schmidiger is happy about his first child. The 31-year-old was eliminated in the first run in Kitzbühel and was also unable to make it into the second run of the night slalom in Madonna di Campiglio. The joys of fatherhood could inspire the Swiss skier on his way back to the top of the world.
