Alpine skiing - Alexis Pinturault wins gold at World Championship
Olympic silver medallist Alexis Pinturault secured his maiden men's alpine combined World Championship title in Are.
The Frenchman produced a masterful run of 38.92 seconds in the slalom, as he set a total time of 1:47.71 to top the podium in Sweden.
He was only 24th after the downhill but his run in the second discipline, the second fastest of all skiers, was enough for victory.
Slovenia's Stefan Hadalin had to settle for the silver medal as he finished 0.24 seconds short of the winner despite producing the fastest time on the second run.
Austria's Marco Schwarz was a further 0.22 seconds behind as he completed the top three.
