The 2017 World Cup season would break off in February for the main event of the year – the 2017 World Championships in his home country in St. Moritz. Feuz didn't produce amazing results to start the year, not helped by the cancellation of two of his favourite races at Beaver Creek and Wengen. In fact Feuz only managed one top 10 result in his first 6 races of the year. It was in Kitzbühel that the signs really became clear Feuz was coming into form for the World Championships. A 3rd place in the Super-G was followed the next day in the downhill by a fall on the Traverse with Feuz having led eventual winner Dominik Paris by 0.72 seconds entering the section. Fortunately Feuz was able to escape from the netting unharmed, and claimed another podium at Garmisch in his final race before the World Championships.
