The 31-year-old Arif was the lone Indian competitor at the Games, having qualified in Slalom and giant slalom events. India sent a six-member contingent to the Games including a coach, a technician, and a team manager. Arif is the first Indian to secure qualification in two events of the same edition of the Games. He had little hope of winning a medal, but Khan’s expectation in Beijing was to ski down nicely and make it to the finish line. Khan now has his eyes set on the 2026 Olympics. Khan was conferred with Jammu and Kashmir government award by The Government of Jammu and Kashmir in the sports category. Alpine skiing results
