Breezy Noble Johnson (born Breanna Noble Johnson; January 19, 1996) is an American World Cup alpine ski racer on the U.S. Ski Team. She competes in the speed events of downhill and super-G.
Born in Jackson, Wyoming, Johnson grew up in nearby Victor, Idaho, and made her World Cup debut in December 2015. In her first World Cup season in 2017, she finished 18th in the downhill standings. At the World Cup finals in March at Aspen, Johnson crashed in the downhill and suffered a tibial plateau fracture to her left leg. Johnson quickly recovered from this injury and in the 2018 season she finished 11th in the downhill standings and competed in the Winter Olympics, finishing seventh in the downhill and fourteenth in the super-G.
While training in Chile in September 2018, Johnson partially tore her right anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and missed the 2019 season. After returning to snow, she tore her left posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and medial collateral ligament (MCL) in her left knee in training in June 2019.
She returned to the World Cup circuit in January 2020 with a 25th in the downhill at Altenmarkt and consecutive top tens at Bansko. Her first World Cup podium came in December 2020 at a downhill in Val d'Isère, France.
She qualified to represent the United States at the 2022 Winter Olympics, but was injured and did not compete.
Johnson served a 14 month competition ban from October 2023 to December 2024 for an anti-doping rule violation after missing three tests during a 12 month period ("Whereabouts Failures").
At the 2025 World Championships, she won the gold medals in downhill and team combined. That was the inaugural race of the team combined, where Johnson skied the downhill and Mikaela Shiffrin skied the slalom.
At the Toyota U.S. Alpine Championships, Johnson was awarded with the 2025 Stifel Alpine Best Comeback (Women) award.
