ALTA BADIA: Marco Odermatt seized a slice of history with a blistering second run on a tricky piste to claim the giant slalom in Alta Badia on Sunday for a second victory in two days in the Italian Dolomites.
Just one day after equalling Pirmin Zurbriggen´s Swiss men´s record for most World Cup victories in downhill in nearby Val Gardena, Odermatt made the record his own with a 41st triumph.
“To be the best Swiss Alpine skier ever, right after Pirmin Zurbriggen, who is the biggest legend we had in Swiss skiing history -- this is a very special moment,” said Odermatt. He is still far behind the overall record-holder Mikaela Shiffrin with 99. Swede Ingemar Stenmark leads male skiers with 86 wins. Vreni Schneider is the top Swiss skier with 55 wins.
