Mae to swap violin for skis
Print Edition
Violinist Vanessa Mae has qualified to ski for Thailand at the Winter Olympics and will lead the sun-soaked kingdom’s team on Sochi’s slopes.
The 35-year-old former child prodigy, whose father is Thai, is one of two competitors who will represent the Southeast Asian nation in Russia next month — both on skis.
“We just received official notification that two Thais qualified including Mae,” a member of the Olympic Committee of Thailand, who did not want to named, said.
“We are very excited. Although there is little chance of winning, the Thai flag will be flown there,” he said, noting that it will be only the third time for Thailand to compete at the winter games.
