Steve Holcomb Biography

Steve Holcomb, winner of a gold medal in the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver as the driver of the U.S. men’s bobsled team, is credited with earning the first gold medal in that event since 1948. Pursing alpine skiing in his hometown of Park City, Utah for twelve years of his childhood, Holcomb was destined for great things. Despite suffering from a severe degenerative eye condition that came to affect his daily life dramatically, Holcomb managed to push through. Enduring an intense procedure after several years that finally rid Holcomb of the condition, he was able to move forward and continue to dedicate his time and energy to his two-man and four-man teams that would compete in both the 2006 and 2010 Winter Olympics, along with dedicating seven years to the Utah National Army Guard from 1999 to 2006. Holcomb will always be admired for making the U.S. National Team at only age 18, overcoming keratoconus, honorably serving our country for seven years, finishing sixth in the four-man event and fourteenth in the two-man event at the 2006 Winter Olympics, and earning a gold medal for winning the 4-main bobsled event for the U.S. Team at the 2010 Winter Olympics.
