Italy's Sofia Goggia claimed victory in the women's super-G today, completing a triple threat of victories at the International Ski Federation (FIS) Alpine Ski World Cup in Lake Louise.

Goggia won both women's downhill events yesterday and Friday (December 3), and the Italian returned to the top step on the podium again in the super-G with another phenomenal showing.

The 29-year-old produced the leading time of 1min 18.28sec, 11sec clear of her nearest challenger.

Switzerland's world champion Lara Gut-Behrami finished second in 1:18.39, while Mirjam Puchner of Austria completed the podium in 1:18.72, finishing third for the second time in Lake Louise after doing so in the opening downhill.

America's Mikaela Shiffrin - a two-time Olympic champion and three-time overall World Cup winner - finished sixth after struggling in the downhill disciplines, placing 26th and 38th.

The victory completes a clean sweep of victories for Goggia, who won four of the seven races to secure last season’s downhill World Cup title.

Goggia, who missed a home World Championships through injury last season, is building up towards a defence of her Olympic downhill title at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics next year. 

The Women's FIS Alpine Ski World Cup continues next weekend in Saint Moritz with the women's super-G.
