A day after cruising to his third consecutive giant slalom victory at Kranjska Gora, Slovenia, Ted Ligety finished third in yet another GS on Saturday. This was his fourth Audi FIS Alpine World Cup podium of the season.
Over in St. Moritz, Switzerland, Lindsey Vonn landed a solid fifth place in Saturday's Audi FIS Alpine World Cup downhill, leading an impressive U.S. Team effort that saw seven U.S. women finish in with world Cup points.
Alice McKennis earned the best result of her young career, taking ninth, and Chelsea Marshall was 10th, her second ever World Cup top 10 finish.
Stacey Cook landed in the points for her eighth consecutive World Cup downhill, taking 12th. As if four in the top 12 weren't enough, Leanne Smith was 18th, Julia Mancuso was 22nd, and Laurenne Ross got her first World Cup points finishing in 28th place.
