Reigning world champion Loic Meillard kept alive his World Cup Alpine skiing slalom title hopes by winning the season's penultimate race in the discipline in Norway on Sunday. The Swiss skier followed up Saturday's giant slalom victory in Hafjell with a win that slashed Norwegian Henrik Kristoffersen's lead in the standings to 47 points with 100 remaining to be won.

Odermatt, 27, had already secured the super-G globe for the third year in a row and is the runaway favorite to also clinch the downhill title.

Marco Odermatt has secured both the men's overall and giant slalom World Cup Alpine skiing titles for the fourth consecutive year. With 1,596 points, he is ahead of Norway's Henrik Kristoffersen. Odermatt also aims to claim the downhill title at next week's finals in Sun Valley,
