Carole Merle of France ended a Swiss 13-race victory streak by winning a World Cup women’s super giant slalom at Grindelwald, Switzerland.
Merle covered the hard-packed course in 1 minute 26.24 seconds, well ahead of the 1:27.97 posted by runner-up Sigrid Wolf of Austria.
Merle, 24, is the only non-Swiss winner on the women’s circuit this winter. The Swiss have won every event since Merle’s victory in the season-opening super-G last November.
