Race Cancellation Hands Odermatt Men's World Cup Super-G Globe
Odermatt won two of six super-G races and leads by 158 points, clinching the title after cancellations left one race remaining in the final World Cup round.
- On Sunday, Marco Odermatt secured the World Cup super-G title, clinching the discipline with an insurmountable 158-point lead and one race remaining.
- Holding a 158-point lead with one super-G remaining, Odermatt cannot be caught as a race win is worth 100 points, making the title insurmountable.
- Odermatt's season form included multiple discipline wins and additional titles as he won two of the six super-G events and added the super-G globe to overall and downhill titles after Friday's downhill.
- Organizers canceled both French Alps super-G events; Saturday's was halted by fog and snowfall, and Sunday's was called off as 'the slope is unfortunately not safe to race on', with no rescheduling before the season ends next week.
- Building on consecutive globes, Odermatt is poised for further titles next week, and is also a strong favorite to take the giant slalom title.
