The sole Senegalese athlete at the Games, Leyti Seck, competed in the men's super-G, giant slalom and slalom. In the super-G on 18 February, Seck finished in 55th place out of the 56 skiers who completed the run with a time of 1:42.87, ahead of Erjon Tola of Albania at the 2006 Winter Olympics. However, he failed to complete his remaining two events, becoming one of the 40 skiers who did not finish the giant slalom on 20 February, and one of the 44 who did not finish the slalom on 25 February. Seck would go on to compete once again for Senegal at the 2010 Winter Olympics.
