In the alpine skiing World Cup overall ranking 2013 she finished third behind [[Tina Maze]] and [[Maria Höfl-Riesch]].

===2014: Sochi Olympics and World Cup overall title=== The [[2014 Alpine Skiing World Cup|2014 season]] was Veith's most successful season so far.

In the next three races after the Olympics, Veith had a runner-up finish and two wins, which gave her 280 more points and temporary lead over Höfl-Riesch. in the World Cup overall standings. Höfl-Riesch. regained the lead after the slalom at Åre, but was injured in the downhill at the World Cup finals in Lenzerheide. The next day, Veith secured her first World Cup overall title with a runner-up finish in the super-G.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Dunbar |first=Graham |journal=[[U.S. News & World Report|U.S. News]] |url=https://www.usnews.com/news/sports/articles/2014/03/13/fenninger-wins-overall-world-cup-gut-wins-super-g |title=Austrian skier Anna Fenninger wins overall World Cup title; Lara Gut wins super-G |date=13 March 2014 |access-date=13 March 2014 |archive-date=14 March 2014 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140314073248/http://www.usnews.com/news/sports/articles/2014/03/13/fenninger-wins-overall-world-cup-gut-wins-super-g |df=dmy }}</ref> She won the season-ending giant slalom to clinch the crystal globe for that discipline as well. Veith was runner-up for the season in both speed events, downhill and super-G and finished with four World Cup victories and eleven podiums. Including the Olympics, she had five wins and thirteen podiums during the 2014 season.

===2015: World Championships and World Cup titles=== [[File:2015 Anna Fenninger-4782 (16739163958) (cropped).jpg|thumb|Veith in March 2015]] Veith had her most successful World Championships to date winning gold medals in the Super-G and GS and a silver in the downhill. Following the World Championships she continued her form in the World Cup. On 19 January she had trailed [[Tina Maze]] by 361 points in the overall. On 13 March she briefly overtook Maze in the standings with a dominant win in the GS in [[Åre]], to take her ninth straight World Cup podium and fifth victory of the season.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.skiracing.com/stories/fenninger-wins-again-surges-to-lead-in-overall-standings/ |title=Fenninger wins again, surges to lead in overall standings |date=13 March 2015 |publisher=Ski Racing.com |archive-date=23 March 2015|access-date=23 Mar 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150323215003/http://www.skiracing.com/stories/fenninger-wins-again-surges-to-lead-in-overall-standings/}}</ref> It was the first time she had led the overall since winning the first race of the season: the GS in [[Sölden]]. Only five races remained. The overall and GS titles would go to the last run of the last race of the season: the GS in Meribel. Veith was then trailing Maze by 18 points in the overall and had an 86-point lead over teammate [[Eva Maria Brem]] in the GS standings. Veith took a win, and with it the GS and overall titles.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.skiracing.com/stories/fenninger-shines-in-winner-takes-all-showdown-with-maze/ |title=Fenninger shines in winner-takes-all showdown with Maze |date=22 March 2015 |publisher=Ski Racing.com |archive-date=23 March 2015|access-date=23 Mar 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150323214645/http://www.skiracing.com/stories/fenninger-shines-in-winner-takes-all-showdown-with-maze/}}</ref>

Three days before the opening race of the 2015–16 season (Giant slalom at [[Sölden]] in October) Veith fell in a training run there. She suffered severe tears to both her [[Anterior cruciate ligament injury|ACL]] and [[Tear of meniscus|meniscus]], causing her to miss the entire season, as well as the majority of the next. Veith's first World Cup event after the injury was a giant slalom at [[Semmering (ski resort)|Semmering]] on 27 December 2016, but she didn't qualify for the second leg. The next day, she was 25th in another GS at Semmering. Her best result on the World Cup was a third place in the Super-G on 29 January at Cortina, shortly before the [[FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 2017|World Championships]]. However, Veith wasn't able to duplicate her success ([[FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 2017 – Women's giant slalom|giant slalom]] (22nd) and [[FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 2017 – Women's super-G|super-G]] (DNF)), then withdrew from the remainder of the World Cup season, citing lingering injuries that needed to be dealt with in order for her to continue in her career.

In January 2016 she announced former tennis player [[Florian Krumrey]] as her new manager.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sport.oe24.at/ski-alpin/Fenninger-Neustart-mit-Wulff-Manager/218373019 |title=Fenninger: Neustart mit Wulff-Manager |publisher=oe24.at |language=de|date=3 January 2016|access-date=18 Dec 2016}}</ref>

===2018: Pyeongchang Olympics=== Veith attempted to defend her 2014 Super-G gold medal, ultimately winning the silver medal in [[2018 Winter Olympics|PyeongChang]] behind Czech skier [[Ester Ledecká]] in a major upset.

===2019: Another injury=== On 12 January 2019 she suffered another cruciate ligament tear during training in Pozza di Fassa (Trentino), although she had not even fallen. She had to cancel the season and thereby also missed the [[FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 2019|World Championships]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://sport.orf.at/stories/3043445/ |title=Veith erleidet wieder Kreuzbandriss |publisher=orf.at |language=de|date=12 January 2019|access-date=18 Jan 2020}}</ref>

From 2013 to 2015, Veith was also a partner of the Austrian non-profit organisation Build an Ark - engaged in wildlife conservation for many years - in order to create a long-term effect for the Cheetah project. The cooperation of a top-athlete and a wildlife conservation association, themed "top-class sports meets wildlife conservation" was intended to raise awareness of the cheetah's plight and of society's role in its long-term survival.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://build-an-ark.at/fenninger/ |title=Anna Fenninger at Build-an-Ark |access-date=19 March 2014 |language=de |archive-date=21 March 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140321073116/http://build-an-ark.at/fenninger/ |df=dmy }}</ref>
