Von Allmen won the Stelvio course in 1:25.32, beating Ryan Cochran-Siegle by 0.13 seconds to complete a rare three-gold sweep at the Milan Cortina Games.
- On Wednesday, Franjo von Allmen of Switzerland won the men's super-G at the Milan Cortina Games, finishing the Stelvio course in 1 minute, 25.32 seconds to beat Ryan Cochran-Siegle by 0.13 seconds for his third Olympic gold.
- After wins on Saturday and Monday, von Allmen secured the downhill and teamed with Tanguy Nef for the team combined event, saying Olympic victory was not necessarily his childhood dream.
- Despite challenges from France and Franzoni, Paris's right ski popped off mid-run, causing him to DNF after finishing sixth, while Odermatt added bronze to his silver.
- The result elevated von Allmen into the third men's Alpine ski racer to win three events at one Winter Olympics, joining Jean-Claude Killy and Anton 'Toni' Sailer, while Ryan Cochran-Siegle's silver continues his family's Olympic legacy from his mother Barbara's 1972 gold.
- After his run, von Allmen celebrated with a glove motion and a playful tongue gesture, and Odermatt remains the reigning giant slalom champion in the next men's event.
