Gross in third place with Hirscher victory – South Tyrolean out early

For the men, there was already the first big surprise in the round of 16, which could have far-reaching consequences: Henrik Kristoffersen had to admit defeat to his compatriot Kjetil Jansrud and thus suffered a bitter setback in the fight for the overall World Cup. His biggest competitor Marcel Hirscher, on the other hand, never showed any nerves during the race, drove flawlessly and confidently made it to the final, where he won a hundredth of a thriller against local hero Andre Myhrer. Hirscher thus extends his lead over Kristoffersen in the overall standings to 173 points and will start the remaining races as the big favorite for the big coup.

Gross with a fantastic third place Outstanding performance from Fassaner Stefano Gross too. The native of Bolzano fought his way to the semi-finals, where it was over against Hirscher. But he excelled in the small final, where he outplayed the Russian Alexander Khoroshilov and secured third place.

Nothing to gain for the South Tyroleans However, the two South Tyrolean participants Patrick Thaler and Manfred Mölgg, who were already over in the round of 16, had no luck: While Thaler was only able to keep up with the finalist Myhrer in the first run, Manfred Mölgg was eliminated by Felix Neureuther, also a city event specialist , out in the second round.

Swiss victory among women In the women's race, however, 20-year-old Swiss Wendy Holdener triumphed, making up for her 0,15 second deficit in the second final run and defeating Swede Frida Hansdotter. There was no Italian at the start among the women.
