Swiss ski stars reach for gold: Odermatt in the focus of the competition!
Saalbach-Hinterglemm, Österreich - Marco Odermatt is the big defending champion at the Ski World Cup in Saalbach, where the men's descent takes place on Sunday, February 9th. The gifted Swiss was able to shine with his victory in the Super-G this season and is therefore the man to beat. He is on the track with a lot of self -confidence, although he warned about the demanding technical aspects of the descent: "It is a very technical departure, especially in the upper area," he explained before the competition. Odermatt even missed the third training session to specifically protect his strength. This is a clear indication that he wants to prepare optimally for the upcoming race, as well as for krone.at

But the pressure increases, because other Swiss athletes like Justin Murisier and Alexis Monney have already celebrated victories this season and could compete with Odermatt. With Franjo von Allmen, who finished second, he also has another strong colleague in the team. As nau.ch will not only be fought for gold on Sunday, but also the possibility that Switzerland at this World Cup will be fought at this World Cup Holt. So an exciting race is guaranteed!
The departure on the Zwölferkogel is a unique highlight, in which Odermatt tries to stand in the footsteps of legendary skiers who have already won the double World Cup in the Super-G and the departure, including the "Herminator" Herman Maier. With all his experience and support of his team, Odermatt could actually write history if he was the first to cross the finish line at the end of the departure.
