“I didn’t ski very well today, I felt more tense than last week.” He said it Sofia Goggia after third place in the first of two super giants from the Sankt Moritz World Cup. «This is always a superG to be interpreted with many bumps, blind spots, very rough terrain; it wasn’t easy to understand the snow conditions, here there is always an aggressive surface and I would need more time to adapt”. For the 32-year-old champion from Bergamo, the one obtained on the ‘Corviglia’ track is the 57th podium in her career, the third consecutive this season which marked her umpteenth return to racing after the serious foot injury on February 5th in Ponte di Legno. Goggia then added: «After Beaver Creek I could no longer ski except in competition, apart from one lap in the open field». As for the winner, «Huetter was very fast everywhere», commented the Italian skier, «me at times, in spurts, but after the injury I like to live day by day». On the return of her friend Lindsey Vonn, the Italian said: «She called me after my descent to get some information on the track, but with number 31 she found a track that was a little more marked».
Elena Curtoni, fourth, said she was «happy» and then explained: «The season started in a positive way. I just have to continue like this and believe in it, without being influenced by the thought of injuries, too many cents or anything similar.” Federica Brignone, fifth, says: «It was a super-G in which you always had to stay in time, but in two points I didn’t succeed and this makes me a little angry because they are errors of confidence, I lack a bit of decision».
The second super-giant is scheduled for tomorrow at 11, then the women’s White Circus will return on the 28th and 29th to Semmering (Austria) for a giant slalom and a special slalom.
