Vlhova stands up to Gut-Behrami

The 29-year-old took her 5th victory in the 4th Super G this season and has once again proven her supremacy in this discipline. Clearly, Gut-Behrami, who celebrated her 30th World Cup victory, is also the big favorite for Super-G gold at the World Championships in Cortina.

After Gut-Behrami was 68 hundredths of a second ahead of second-placed Kajsa Vickhoff Lie on the challenging Kandahar slope on Saturday, her lead this time wasn't quite as big. Petra Vlhova was an athlete on Monday who was able to keep up with Gut-Behrami to some extent. The technology specialists also drove – in good conditions – like they were on rails and were only 28 hundredths behind at the finish.

As a result, the Slovakian also defended her lead in the overall World Cup. Vlhova, who is getting better and better in the speed disciplines, now has a lead of 42 points over second-placed Gut-Behrami. Brignone best Azzurra The Austrian Tamara Tippler secured third place in the 3nd Garmisch Super-G - with a respectable gap of 2 hundredths to the winner. Best Azzurra – on day one after Injury shock for Sofia Goggia – Federica Brignone came in 7th. With Francesca Marsaglia, Marta Bassino, Laura Pirovano and Elena Curtoni, four other Italians landed in the top 15. Nadia Delago from Val Gardena was unable to collect any World Cup points in 35th place.

Lara Gut-Behrami also won the 2nd Super-G in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. However, this time it wasn't quite as clear a matter for the Swiss.
