Odermatt takes foggy downhill for 50th World Cup win
Marco Odermatt secured his 50th World Cup win when he took a fog-hit men's downhill at Val Gardena on Thursday.
He equals Italian Alberto Tomba's World Cup tally but they remain level fourth in the all-time men's list behind Ingemar Stenmark (86), Marcel Hirscher (67) and Hermann Maier (54).
Mikaela Shiffrin holds the overall record with 105 World Cup wins.
The start of the competition was delayed for an hour and half and there was a further fog interruption after just 22 of the 67 competitors had completed their runs.
By that stage the 28-year-old Swiss had already set the quickest time of the day and was waiting for confirmation that he had equalled Tomba's tally.
Fellow Swiss Franjo Von Allmen set the early pace but Odermatt, wearing bib 14, swept down the mountain to clock 1min 24.48sec to edge his compatriot by 0.15sec.
Italian Dominik Paris completed the podium, 0.19sec behind Odermatt.
Downhill champion for the past two season, Odermatt retains the lead in the discipline standings.
He also leads the overall standings, with twice as many points as Norway's Henrik Kristoffersen, as he bids for a fifth successive globe.
