Alice Robinson takes St. Moritz super-G and has emerged as two-discipline Olympic threat

New Zealand's Alice Robinson was already leading the Olympic season's giant slalom standings. Now she's a threat in super-G, too.

Robinson won a World Cup super-G on Sunday in St. Moritz, Switzerland for her first career victory in the discipline.

Robinson finished in one minute 14.84 seconds, 8-100ths ahead of Romane Miradoli of France and 19-100ths in front of Sofia Goggia of Italy.

"Crazy. I was not expecting this today," Robinson said. "I always felt like I was holding back in super-G a bit but not a part of me was scared today. I just wanted to go for it."

The 41-year-old American standout Lindsey Vonn finished fourth, 0.27 behind. In a downhill on Friday, Vonn became the oldest winner in the circuit's history. Vonn then finished second in another downhill on Saturday.

"I'm a little bit disappointed in myself that I didn't push hard enough," Vonn said. "I was too conservative in some sections."

Mikaela Shiffrin, the holder of a record 104 World Cup victories, missed the final gate but did not fall.

Shiffrin hadn't entered a speed race since crashing in a downhill in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, nearly two years ago. She's also still recovering her form after another crash in a giant slalom in Killington, Vt., last season left her with a deep puncture wound on the right side of her abdomen.

Emma Aicher, the German skier who won Saturday's downhill, lost control coming over a jump early in her run and fell. But she got right back up and appeared uninjured.

U.S. ski team head coach Alex Hoedlmoser set a tricky course that caught out several other racers, too, despite clear and sunny skies providing perfect conditions.
