Zrinka Ljutić grew up idolising compatriot ski stars Janica and Ivica Kostelic – and now she's an FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup champion just like them. The second oldest of four children, the native of Zagreb fell in love with skiing thanks to her father, Amir, a coach for a local Croatian ski club.

Since making her World Cup debut in 2020, the young Croatian learned precious lessons from her most experienced colleagues, including Sara Hector, Anna Swenn-Larsson and Janica Kostelic.
