Switzerland's Marco Odermatt overcomes a first-run deficit to win his ninth World Cup of the season and his 12th consecutive. He now owns the second-longest discipline-winning streak in history. Only Ingemar Stenmark has a longer consecutive streak at 14. There are two more GS races this season.
After Saturday's first run of GS in Aspen, Colorado, the top three remain unchanged from yesterday. However, today, the leader isn't Switzerland's Marco Odermatt but the 22-year-old Norwegian Alexander Steen Olsen. Odermatt trails in third place, 0.32 seconds behind the leader, with his teammate Loic Meillard closely behind the Norwegian in second, just 0.09 seconds off the lead.
