Marco Odermatt finished in fifth place in the last Super-G of the season in Saalbach securing the discipline Crystal Globe.
Odermatt became the first male skier to win the Super-G Crystal Globe in successive seasons since Kjetil Jansrud won it in 2016-2017 and 2017-2018. The only Swiss man to have topped the Super-G World Cup standings more than once was Pirmin Zurbriggen who has won it four times.
The skier from Nidwalden has finished on the podium in five of the seven Super-G events this season including two victories in Bormio, and Garmisch Partenkirchen.
The 26-year-old Swiss Ace is the fourth man to win at least 12 World Cup Super-G World Cup races, after Hermann Maier (24), Aksel Lund Svindal (17), and Kjetil Jansrud (13).
With 13 wins Marco Odermatt has equaled the Men's record for most World Cup wins in a single season, set by Ingemar Stenmark (1978-1979), Hermann Maier (2000-2001), Marcel Hirscher (2017-2018), and Odermatt himself in 2022-2023.
