Born in
Turin and raised in hometown
Valgioie, Matilde Lorenzi began skiing at a young age alongside her sister,
Lucrezia, also an international alpine skier. To support their training, the Lorenzi family relocated to
Sestriere, where Matilde and Lucrezia honed their skills with the Sci Club Sestriere before joining the
Centro Sportivo Esercito (the sports club of the
Italian Army). In the 2023–24 season, Lorenzi achieved significant milestones, including winning the Italian national titles in both the élite and junior categories in super-G at
Sarntal. She also secured a sixth-place finish in downhill and eighth in super-G at the Junior World Championships in
Châtel, Haute-Savoie. Her best race result in the
Europa Cup was an eleventh-place finish in super-G at
St. Moritz in December 2023. On 28 October 2024, during a giant slalom training session on the Grawand G1 slope in
Schnalstal (
South Tyrol), Lorenzi suffered a severe fall. She lost control of her skis and was ejected outside the slope, resulting in a violent impact with the icy surface. Despite prompt medical attention and being airlifted to the hospital in
Bolzano, she succumbed to her injuries during the night. Lorenzi was 19. After the funeral service, held in
Giaveno on 31 October 2024, Lorenzi was buried in Valgioie cemetery. ==Europa Cup results==
