Odermatt retains Kitzbuehel super-G in Olympic broadside

SPORTS 23.01.2026

World champion Marco Odermatt underlined his credentials as a firm favourite for Olympic gold next month by scorching to victory in the World Cup super-G at Kitzbuehel on Friday.

Text size:

The Swiss skier, who also won the super-G here last year but is yet to win the famed downhill at the upmarket Austrian resort, timed 1min 08.41sec down the 2.1km-long Streifalm course in brilliant sunshine.

The 28-year-old, who won Olympic giant slalom gold in Beijing four years ago, scooped 101,000 euros ($118,000) for the win, with two further similar jackpots on offer for Saturday's downhill and Sunday's slalom.

It was Odermatt's 53rd World Cup victory and his eighth of the season.

The men's alpine skiing at the February 6-22 Winter Olympics takes place in the Italian resort of Bormio.
