The weather is once again thwarting the plans of the ski stars this season. There is a lack of snow in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia. For weather and safety reasons, the FIS changes the program: the giant slalom on Saturday is canceled and the slalom planned for Sunday is brought forward to Saturday.
What does this mean for Marco Odermatt (26)? The superstar is chasing several fantastic records this season, including the mega winning streak of Ingemar Stenmark (67) in the giant slalom. The Swede won fourteen races in a row between March 18, 1978 and January 21, 1980, Odermatt currently has twelve.
With victories in Kranjska Gora, where he started his series about a year ago, and at the World Cup final in Saalbach (Austria), Odermatt could have overtaken the Swede this season. In his current top form he would have been difficult to beat in both races. The chance of winning the historic brand was correspondingly high.
And now? If Odermatt manages to win the tenth and final giant slalom this winter, he could only equal the record at the traditional season opener in Sölden (Austria). The possibility would therefore only be postponed. However, it’s impossible to predict what form he and the competition will take between now and then.
