Federica Brignone Clinches Overall World Cup Title with Home Super-G Win

The 34-year-old Italian skier secures her second career overall title, becoming the oldest champion in World Cup history.

  • Federica Brignone won the Super-G race in La Thuile, Italy, edging teammate Sofia Goggia by one-hundredth of a second.
  • This victory guarantees Brignone the 2025 Overall World Cup title, her second after first winning in 2020.
  • Brignone, now 34, becomes the oldest skier to claim the Overall World Cup title, with an insurmountable 382-point lead over Lara Gut-Behrami.
  • Emma Aicher, who won the previous day’s Super-G, failed to finish after a mid-race mistake, calling it a 'dumb' error.
  • Brignone is also in contention to win additional discipline titles in Super-G, downhill, and giant slalom before the season concludes.
