The Swiss skier finished with a 1.01-second advantage over Luca De Aliprandini of Italy and 1.09 ahead of Alexander Schmid of Germany as the top three held their positions from the first leg. Odermatt extended his lead atop the overall standings to a comfortable 228 points over Austrian speed specialist Matthias Mayer. Odermatt had finished second behind Henrik Kristoffersen in another giant slalom on the Gran Risa on Sunday.
