A royal podium, in front of Federica Brignone who, for the 2nd heat disputed today on the Schlossberg, deserved to find the top 3 also in “her” giant. The fourth round between the wide gates in this cup season, even without Mikaela Shiffrin and Lara Gut-Behrami, those who dominated all of them in Soelden, is full of smiles as Lienz's result is very heavy for each of the protagonists. Starting from the third place of Sara Hector, who after 2nd and 1st place in Courchevel continues her streak and falls just 18 points behind Shiffrin in the specialty ranking, shorter and shorter up there. Petra Vlhova, second today after having touched the podium twice in Courchevel (the Slovak has never done worse than fifth in the seven technical races disputed so far), rejoices all the same thinking that now there will be her slalom, without the great rival in the '' appointment on Wednesday always on the Austrian snow, and finds himself 235 lengths behind the leader of the general, considering then that he will go to Zagreb, Maribor and Flachau. Lienz was, however, also and above all the day of Tessa Worley: fifteenth pearl in the World Cup, all in giant where the transalpine champion is the third ever in terms of successes, preceded only by Vreni Schneider and Annemarie Moser- Proell: "I'm really happy with this race in terms of performance - the two-time champion between wide doors commented to" Ski Chrono "- I managed to put together two solid heats, this was the goal after I had only approached the podium. Today I felt safe on the ski, I enjoyed it and the result has also arrived. I close the year with a victory (after starting it at the end of January with the last triumph at Kronplatz, ed), hoping to continue in the same way in 2022 ”.
