2025 Alpine Skiing World Cup – Men's super-G

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
2025 Men's Super-G World Cup
  • Marco Odermatt of Switzerland, discipline champion for the third straight season
Previous: 2024 Next: 2026

The men's super-G in the 2025 Alpine Skiing World Cup consisted of eight events, including the final. The first event of the season did not take place until 6 December 2024 in Beaver Creek. Marco Odermatt of Switzerland, the two-time defending champion in the discipline, was the only skier with multiple race wins in the discipline and thus easily won his third straight championship.

The season was interrupted for the Alpine Skiing World Championships, this time in Saalbach, Austria during 4–16 February 2025.[1] The championship in men's super-G took place on Friday, 7 February, and also was won by Odermatt.

Season summary

[edit]

The first super-G of the season was held in Beaver Creek (Colorado), USA in December 2024, and Marco Odermatt of Switzerland, two-time defending champion in the discipline, recorded his first victory of the season over one of his principal rivals from the previous season, Cyprien Sarrazin of France.[2] The next two giant slaloms were scheduled for Italy; in the first, Italy's Mattia Casse, who had never before won a World Cup race, edged out American Jared Goldberg by 1/100 of a second to earn the victory and move into second in the discipline behind Odermatt, who finished third.[3] In the last race before New Year's Day, Norway's Fredrik Møller recorded his first World Cup victory, edging Vincent Kriechmayr of Austria, but Odermatt's fifth-place finish allowed him to retain the discipline lead by five points over Møller.[4]

The first super-G in 2025 took place in Wngen, Switzerland, and Odermatt only managed to finish seventh, his first time outside the top 5 in a super-G in almost three years (since March 2022), but his young Swiss teammate Franjo von Allmen edged Kriechmayr to provide the Swiss fans with a home winner.[5] Odermatt recovered the next week to win the super-G at Kitzbühel, Austria -- his first victory there in any discipline.[6] Building on this success, Odermatt then won the super-G World Championship by a full second over Austria's Raphael Haaser, which was the largest winning margin in a speed race (downhill of super-G) at the World Championships since 1991.[7] Odermatt then won his third consecutive super-G by prevailing at Crans Montana, building an almost insurmountable lead in the discipline for the season.[8] In the last race before finals, at Kvitfjell, Norway, Odermatt clinched the discipline championship when Casse, the only racer with a theoretical chance of catching him, was unable to start due to injuries; however, Italy's Dominik Paris, the discipline champion in 2019, came through with a victory two days after winning a downhill on the same course -- which left seven racers, including Paris, battling for the two podium steps behind Odermatt at finals.[9]

Finals

[edit]

The World Cup finals in the discipline took place on Sunday, 23 March 2025 in Sun Valley, Idaho, United States.[10] Only the top 25 skiers in the World Cup slalom discipline and the winner of the Junior World Championship in the discipline (Benno Brandis of Germany), plus any skiers who have scored at least 500 points in the World Cup overall classification for the season, were eligible to compete in the final, and only the top 15 earned World Cup points. Only one 500+-point skier who wasn't otherwise eligible (Loïc Meillard of Switzerland) entered the race, and three eligible skiers (Mattia Casse of Italy, Cameron Alexander of Canada, and Cyprien Sarrazin of France) were unable to compete due to injury, thus setting the field for finals at 24 skiers (including Brandis). In a significant upset, 23-year-old Austrian Lukas Feurstein won his first World Cup race (and the first for Austria in the entire men's season in any discipline) on the new Sun Valley speed course, which both Feurstein and fellow podium finisher Franjo von Allmen of Switzerland described as utilizing more turns than a normal men's super-G course.[11]
