Alice Robinson's Historic Super-G Win in St. Moritz
Alice Robinson made history as the first New Zealander to win a World Cup Super-G. The victory in St. Moritz marked her seventh career win. Despite tough competition, Robinson emerged victorious, enhancing her reputation as a strong contender for the upcoming Olympics' Super-G medal.
In a groundbreaking performance, Alice Robinson has become the first Alpine skier from New Zealand to clinch a World Cup Super-G victory. Her triumph in St. Moritz on Sunday was sealed with a time of one minute 14.84 seconds, outpacing France's Romane Miradoli and Italy's Sofia Goggia.
The giant slalom World Cup leader adds a seventh career win to her achievements, positioning herself as a formidable contender for the Milano-Cortina Olympics. This win is especially significant as all her previous victories were in the giant slalom category.
American ski icon Lindsey Vonn narrowly missed a podium finish, highlighting Robinson's formidable presence on the slopes. Meanwhile, Mikaela Shiffrin aimed to test her Super-G readiness, adding a fresh layer of anticipation for future races.
