Hirscher soars to GS win at Alta Badia yet again
Print Edition
Marcel Hirscher became the first skier to win the challenging Alta Badia giant slalom in Italy for three consecutive years yesterday, reclaiming the overall World Cup lead from Aksel Lund Svindal in the process.
Erasing a slim first-run disadvantage, Hirscher finished 0.19 seconds ahead of Henrik Kristoffersen of Norway. Opening-leg leader Victor Muffat-Jeandet of France ended up third, 0.86 behind. Olympic and three-time world champion Ted Ligety of the US moved up from 10th after the first run to end fourth, missing the podium by nearly half a second. Italian great Alberto Tomba holds the record with four GS wins on the Gran Risa course. Hirscher also has four victories, although one of the Austrian’s wins came in slalom in 2011. In the overall standings, Hirscher moved 20 points ahead of Norwegian rival Svindal, who finished 28th.
