Lise-Marie Morerod

Lise-Marie Morerod (born 16 April 1956) is a Swiss former slalom skier.

Her winning the bronze medal in the slalom race at the FIS Alpine Skiing World Championships was a great surprise because she was an unknown racer.

[citation needed] A car accident in July 1978 left Morerod in a coma for six weeks and led to a six-month hospital stay.

The injuries she sustained in the accident left her with long-term memory problems.
