Dominik Paris claims the super-G in Kvitfjell

Italy's Dominik Paris won the super-G in Kvitfjell, Norway, on Sunday, while World Cup leader Marco Odermatt finished fourth to move closer to the crystal globe.

Text size:

It was a successful weekend for 35-year-old Paris, who adds the super-G to the downhill victory he picked up on Friday to take him to a career-total 24 World Cup wins.

He raced past the line in a time of 1min 08.98 seconds, with Canada's James Crawford 0.38sec slower and Slovenian Miha Hrobat completing the podium a further 0.09sec behind.

Odermatt missed out on the podium by 0.01sec, but the Swiss star is assured of the super-G small globe after his main contender Mattia Casse injured himself during training last Wednesday.

The 27-year-old also moved 570 points ahead of Norway's Henrik Kristoffersen in the overall standings, meaning he needs just 30 more points to ensure himself a fourth consecutive title.
