It's a wrap for the 2016/17 Audi FIS Ski World Cup

21 March 2017

After 73 races in 13 different countries, the World Cup season came to an end at the Audi FIS Ski World Cup Finals in Aspen. In each discipline, the best athletes were rewarded with the famous Crystal Globe, symbol of a constant and successful season.

Downhill (8x ladies, 8x men)
In downhill, despite seven races for each gender, both titles were not decided before the Finals in Aspen. Thanks to her fourth win in the discipline at the final race in Aspen, Slovenia's Ilka Stuhec was able to collect her first career globe, ending the season 137 points ahead of Italy's Sofia Goggia. Switzerland's Lara Gut, who suffered a season ending knee injury in February, could hold on to a third place in the standings.

On the men's side, defending champion Peter Fill was 33 points behind 2015 winner Kjetil Jansrud going into the final race. Finishing second was enough for the Italian to secure the globe, as Jansrud finished 11th. Fill took the globe without winning a single downhill this season, but with five podium placements.
