Two weeks after stunning spectators when he came from 65th to finish second in a downhill in Lake Louise, Switzerland's Carlo Janka clinched his career first World Cup win during a giant slalom in Val d'Isere. The U.S. Ski Team's Ted Ligety (Park City, UT) struggled under tough light and snow conditions to finish 12th.
The men's giant slalom, along with the rest of this weekend's alpine coverage, will be webcast on demand at UniversalSports.com.
Italy's Massimiliano Blardone took second in the giant slalom and Gauthier De Tessieres of France was third.
