Goergl wins Cortina Super-G

Goergl clocked a time of 1:24.23 to take victory by just four hundredths from German star Maria Hoefl-Riesch.

Another Austrian, Nicole Hosp, came third.

“What I am looking for everyday is the way to ski the best,” said Goergl after her sixth career win, and her second of the season.

“That the main focus and of course it is great when it pays off and you are the fastest. For now, I feel very comfortable on my equipment. I am very happy I can ski the way I want to and that I am healthy. I appreciate everyday.”

Hoefl-Riesch was pleased to be on the podium: "It's my first super-G podium of the season and that's great satisfaction,” she said.

"So far it hasn't worked fine for me in super-G. I was fast in some sections but always made big mistakes. Today I finally managed not to make any big mistake and I am really happy about this race.

"The season has been going well for me, not perfect but really good. Even in giant slalom, I got two fifth places.

"The consistency has been missing a little bit. With the Olympics getting closer, I hope I will have enough of this consistency and mental strength entering the races there.”
