LINDSEY Vonn won a World Cup super-combined event yesterday to extend her lead in the standings over second-place Tina Maze.
The American defended her lead from the morning downhill with a solid slalom leg to win in a combined two-run time of 2 minutes, 28.35 seconds in St Moritz, Switzerland. Maze was 0.41 seconds back and third-place Nicole Hosp of Austria trailed Vonn by 0.58.
Vonn earned 100 World Cup points for the victory and now leads the Slovenian by 302 points.
Her 48th career World Cup win also got her defense of the season-long super-combined title off to a successful start.
Vonn, who has seven victories this season as she seeks to recapture the overall crown, has won the super-combined title for the past two years.
She held her nerve when Maze and Hosp had put down the two fastest slalom runs, after they had placed sixth and seventh, respectively, in the downhill.
It proved another disappointing day for defending overall champion Maria Hoefl-Riesch, the super-combined Olympic champion. The German was third in the morning but messed up her slalom.
