[OLYMPICS] Ryan Cochran-Siegle Soars to Silver as Franjo von Allmen Claims Historic 3rd Gold in Super-G - SnowBrains

The men's Super-G at Bormio ran on a sunny, fast Stelvio course that produced tense, thrilling racing. Franjo von Allmen, age 24, charged to gold by 0.13 seconds over American Ryan Cochran-Siegle, marking von Allmen's third Olympic gold at Milan–Cortina after downhill and the team combined. Von Allmen becomes the third man in Olympic history to win three alpine golds at a single Games, joining Toni Sailer and Jean-Claude Killy. Cochran-Siegle attacked early from bib 3 on a clean, grippy surface to take silver. Bormio rewarded committed, precise skiing on long gliding sections and technical rolls that punish hesitation.

""I don't quite know what's going on myself,""

""I really didn't think it was enough for the podium when I reached the finish line.""

""I felt like I went out there, skied with a lot of heart and just the focus that I've been doing consistently from top to bottom. It's a great place to do it-I feel like I really embraced the slope and the way the snow was and the course set. But the meaning? It hasn't set in. I did not expect this.""
