Breezy Johnson (born Breanna Noble Johnson in 1996) is an American Alpine skier. She won the U.S. team’s first gold medal at the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Games, taking first place in the downhill event. With that victory, Johnson also became just the second U.S. woman, after Lindsey Vonn, to win a downhill gold medal. She later competed in the team event. Although she won the downhill portion, the United States ultimately placed fourth. In the super-G final, Johnson crashed. About an hour later her boyfriend, Connor Watkins, proposed at the finish line. Johnson said yes.
Johnson suffered numerous injuries during her career, including an ACL tear that prevented her from competing during the 2019 season. In 2024 she was suspended for 14 months for her third whereabouts failure—Olympic-level athletes are required to make their daily locations known to the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency for random drug testing. Johnson subsequently considered retiring but ultimately opted to continue competing, aided, in part, by the support of other athletes. She later won two gold medals at the 2025 world championship: downhill and team combined.
