Swiss ace Odermatt romps to Wengen downhill win

Because Wengen was wind lashed the iconic course was shortened and Odermatt won in 1min 33.14sec. Austrian Vincent Kriechmayr was second 0.79sec off the winning pace while Italy's Giovanni Franzoni came third. "I knew that on such a short course, I had to show some hunger. Here, every hundredth of a second counts," Odermatt said. In Friday's super-G Odermatt made a small mistake on the the 'Kernen S' - two right handers separated by a small bridge and paid for it as he finished fourth. This time he did not let up.
