Goggia claims Crans-Montana downhill
Italy's Sofia Goggia bounced back from her world championships disappointment in Sunday's World Cup downhill at Crans-Montana.
Goggia was hot favourite to claim downhill gold at Meribel last week but ended up disqualified, with the world title going to Swiss outsider Jasmine Flury.
Goggia put that reverse behind her to notch up her 22nd World Cup win and tighten her grip on a fourth downhill World Cup crown.
The Olympic silver medallist, who bagged gold in the 2018 Pyeongchang Games, came in 0.15seconds clear of her compatriot Federica Brignone, with Laura Gauche (0.41) in third for the French skier's first podium on the elite circuit.
Goggia's fifth downhill win of the season pushed her 179 points clear of Slovenia's Ilka Stuhec (ninth on Sunday) in the discipline's standings with just the downhills at Kvitfjell in Norway next weekend and at the finals in Soldeu in Andorra to come.
Missing this weekend was Mikaela Shiffrin who has decided to keep her powder dry and prepare for next weekend where she is setting her sights on an 86th World Cup success to draw level with the overall record held by Ingmar Stenmark.
