The Men’s World Cup Giant Slalom (GS) in Bansko, Bulgaria, on Saturday, February 10th, is set to showcase the dominance of Switzerland's Marco Odermatt. Odermatt, the reigning GS champion, has swept all five GS races this season, solidifying his status as one of the sport's all-time greats at 26.

The big surprise of the evening came when Switzerland's Marco Odermatt crossed the finish without the lead. Notably, Odermatt has won all the GS races this season. Although he was fast in the first and last sectors, the superstar finds himself the 11th fastest (+0.98) behind Austrian star Manuel Feller. It will take an Odermatt miracle to find his way to the podium but Odermatt miracles are ordinary. It is likely, however, that the fatigue of the recent speed event demands could have negatively affected his performance. He might be human, after all.
