Alpine skiing
Luxembourg qualified one male athlete, signifying the nation's Olympic return to the sport for the first time since 1994.[2] The Luxembourgish Olympic and Sporting Committee sets stricter standards than the International Ski Federation (FIS) to qualify for the Games. This required any alpine skier to at least score two races under 45 FIS points.[3]
