Goggia skis to victory in opening St Moritz super-G
Italy's Sofia Goggia won her first World Cup super-G race in two years after streaking to victory in tricky conditions in St Moritz on Friday.
The 31-year-old Italian's 23rd World Cup success saw her finish 0.95 seconds ahead of Austria's Cornelia Huetter, with home favourite Lara Gut-Behrami rounding out the podium (+1.02sec).
Goggia, who won Olympic downhill gold in 2018 and silver in 2022, rises to sixth in the overall standings currently led by American Mikaela Shiffrin, who finished fourth in the super-G.
Action in St Moritz continues with a downhill on Saturday and a second super-G on Sunday.
