Olympic champion Lara Gut-Behrami is halfway to Lindsey Vonn's Cortina record after claiming a World Cup super-G on Sunday for her sixth career victory on the Olympia delle Tofane course in Italy — which again was the site of multiple crashes.

Too bad the 32-year-old Gut-Behrami can't say for sure yet whether she'll still be competing in two years at the Milan-Cortina Olympics.

In a race when many of the top favourites struggled with a tricky course-set, Gut-Behrami edged Stephanie Venier, Friday's downhill winner, by 0.21 seconds.

Romane Miradoli finished third, 0.41 behind. WATCH | Gut-Behrami secures victory: Asked if she will be back at Cortina next year, Gut-Behrami responded only, "We'll see." It was Gut-Behrami's fourth World Cup win in Cortina, to go with her two gold medals at the 2021 world championships at the Italian resort.
