Worley the only one to stand in front of Brignone, returns to success
The only one who resists his comeback is Tessa Worley, sublime interpreter of this discipline and capable of managing his advantage over Federica up to maintaining a margin of three tenths. Another class test for her, at the 16th giant success in the World Cup. The same as Annemarie Moser-Pröll, higher up there are only 20 by Vreni Schneider. To complete the podium she is the seasonal protagonist of wide doors, Sarah Hector. The Swede loses two positions compared to the first descent, but she can be satisfied with her seventh consecutive podium in the giant between the Cup and the Olympics. With two races to go, however, her advantage over Worley in the specialty standings is reduced to 55 points.
Terrible fall of Hrovat, Brignone covers his face
Mikaela Shiffrin she falls off the provisional podium in the middle of the race, but she too can smile. She finishes fourth and is 50 gold points earned in the overall up Petra Vlhova, which came out sensationally in the first heat. Instead, they go back up Michelle Gisin (fifth, two positions recovered), Catherine Liensberger (may be), Ragnhild Mowinckel (quattro), Wendy Holdener (a), Coralie Frasse Sombet (seven) and Paula Moltzán (eleven) to close the top ten. Scare for Meta Hrovat, fourth in the morning and crashed while skiing on the rhythms of Brignone. Italy places two other athletes in the points: Roberta Melesi is 19th, Elena Curtoni 20th.
Brignone in crescendo, good final and 5th in the middle of the race
