Goggia Wins Soldeu Super-G, Reclaims Lead

Sofia Goggia of Italy reclaimed a commanding lead in the women's World Cup super-G standings with a victory on Sunday in Soldeu, Andorra, one day after Germany's Emma Aicher had narrowed the gap with a win on the same challenging Aliga course.

Goggia finished 0.24 seconds ahead of Aicher, who took second place, while Norway's Kajsa Vickhoff Lie earned third, 0.31 seconds off the pace. New Zealand's Alice Robinson, Goggia's closest rival, placed seventh, 0.94 seconds behind the winner. The result extended Goggia's advantage to 84 points over Robinson with two super-G events remaining in the season. A race victory awards 100 points, and Goggia's performance came after she had slipped to just a 20-point lead following her sixth-place finish in Saturday's race.

"I'm still not thinking about it," Goggia said after her run. "I'm really thinking day by day, race by race. It was a solid run today; I got back the points I lost yesterday." The 32-year-old, an Olympic downhill bronze medalist, now has nine career super-G wins but is pursuing her first season-long title in the discipline. She previously claimed the downhill crystal globe four times, most recently in 2023.
