VAL D'ISERE, France (AP) — Austrian skier Stefan Brennsteiner is poised to add to his breakout season by leading the opening run of a World Cup giant slalom on Saturday.
Brennsteiner stood 0.28 seconds ahead of Henrik Kristoffersen and 0.33 ahead of Timon Haugan.
Swiss standout Marco Odermatt was fourth, 0.46 behind.
Last month at Copper Mountain, Colorado, Brennsteiner won a giant slalom for his first World Cup victory. At age 34, he has also finished fourth in the other two GS races this season.
Including last season, Brennsteiner has finished inside the top 10 in seven consecutive giant slalom races — the longest active streak in the discipline.
Brennsteiner's results could make him a medal contender at the upcoming Milan Cortina Winter Olympics.
