Slope style

A day after her success in Big Air, Mathilde Gremaud was only defeated by the Frenchwoman Tess Ledeux in slopestyle at the Ski Freestyle World Cup in Tignes. The Freiburg resident also wins the small crystal ball in this discipline.

Gremaud has won a complete set of medals at the Olympic Games. A year ago she became slopestyle world champion. Before this season, however, a crystal ball was still missing from the 24-year-old’s palm. This changes her impressively. After taking second place in slopestyle on Saturday, she has become the first freestyler ever to win three crystal balls in one winter.

Especially since Friday a big crystal ball

Although there is another slopestyle competition in Silvaplana on March 24, she can no longer be pushed out of first place in the discipline rankings. She already had the big crystal ball after her success on Friday in Big Air. With six victories this season, a record in the World Cup for ski freestylers – even a man had never achieved this before – she achieved the maximum number of points. Because more than six matches are not counted.

A small downside is that after three victories, Gremaud is not on the highest podium in slopestyle for the first time this World Cup season. After a failed first run, she improved from 8th to 2nd place. However, she cannot come close to Tess Ledeux’s 80.43 points, she scored 75.56 points. Sarah Höfflin from Geneva (70.35) takes 4th place (SDA)

Cross-country skiing

Nadine Fähndrich is also the top-ranked Swiss woman in her third match after surgery for benign cardiac arrhythmias. One day after reaching the final in the classic sprint, the woman from Lucerne finished the classic 10 km race with an individual start in 17th place at the cross-country skiing season finale in Falun. In difficult conditions with snowfall and sometimes strong gusts of wind, Fähndrich lost more than a minute and a half to the Finnish winner Kerttu Niskanen. Her teammates Nadja Kälin, Anja Weber and Désirée Steiner are ranked 22nd, 32nd and 34th respectively.

Diggins before the overall World Cup victory

With 5th place in Falun, Jessie Diggins takes a big step towards winning the overall World Cup for cross-country skiers on Sunday for the second time after 2021. For the final mass start race over 20 km of skating, the American leads 75 points ahead of the Swede Linn Svahn, who is directly behind Fähndrich. (SDA)
