Italian ski racer Federica Brignone wrapped up the season-long giant slalom title on Tuesday at the World Cup finals in a race won by Lara Gut-Behrami of Switzerland in Sun Valley, Idaho. Brignone needed to finish just 13th or better in the final run to clinch the discipline crown and wound up second.
She finished 0.14 seconds behind Gut-Behrami's winning combined time of two minutes, 10.01 seconds on a warm day at Sun Valley. Sara Hector of Sweden was third (2:10.81). The 34-year-old Brignone entered the day 20 points behind Alice Robinson of New Zealand in the last World Cup giant slalom race of the season.
