Poutiainen, Zettel 1-2 in Sölden Women's GS

As Yogi Berra would say - "It's deja vu all over again" with Tanja Poutiainen of Finland, the 09 GS event champion, and Kathrin Zettel of Austria, last year's Sölden winner and GS event runnerup, battling for podium slots at the Solden, Austria, World Cup Giant Slalom. This year Tanja takes the gold but only by 1 one-hundredth of a second over Kathrin. Hey, the average person blinks an eye in 3 to 4 tenths of a second!

Denise Karbon of Italy, 08 GS champ, took third and Lindsey Vonn led the U.S. women finishing 9th - the same as last year.  A nice mix of veterans and young racers in  the top slots. Take note of Camile Alfieri of Italy with the fastest top ten second run by better than a second and 20 year old German racer Viktoria Rebensburg coming in 8th.
