SAALBACH-HINTERGLEMM, Austria (AP) — Lara Gut-Behrami has completed half of her mission to win four crystal globes this Alpine skiing World Cup season.
And the Swiss star hasn't even had to show her best skiing yet.
Gut-Behrami secured the overall and giant slalom titles Sunday after finishing 10th in the GS at the World Cup finals.
Her only remaining challenger in both classifications, Federica Brignone, won the race but that was not enough for the Italian, who could only overtake Gut-Behrami if the Swiss star had finished outside the top 15 and failed to score points.
