Steven Williams

He was able to qualify for the 2018 Winter Olympics at the very last moment, due to reassignment of quotas from the International Ski Federation. With this, he became the first Argentine to compete in Snowboard Cross at the Winter Olympics. Williams managed to advance to the knockout stage, however he was surpassed by only four centimeters in the final straight by the French snowboarder Merlin Surget.

Shortly after starting snowboarding, Williams began to participate in various Argentine competitions. In 2011 he managed to travel to Europe, where he participated in six tournaments. This allowed him to join the Argentine Ski Federation where he could improve his performance, winning three times the Argentine Championship and one European Cup. He was the South American Champion seven times, both in Argentina and Chile, and in individual tournaments in Ushuaia, Corralco and Bariloche. Later, he reached the Top 10 in the World Championship.
