Swiss racer Malorie Blanc claimed her first World Cup victory in the women's super-G in Crans-Montana on January 31, 2026, edging out Italy's Sofia Goggia by 0.18 seconds while American Lindsey Vonn sat out after injuring her left knee in a crash the previous day. The event, the last before the Milano-Cortina Olympics, unfolded under sunny skies following Friday's downhill cancellation due to poor weather. The race carried a somber tone in remembrance of a New Year's Day fire that killed 40 people in the resort.
Marco Odermatt of Switzerland clinched a narrow victory in the men's World Cup super-G at Kitzbühel on Friday, beating teammate Franjo von Allmen by just 0.03 seconds. The win, on the iconic Streif course, marks Odermatt's second consecutive super-G triumph at the Hahnenkamm and bolsters his Olympic preparations. Austrian Stefan Babinsky took third, providing some home consolation.
