Marco Odermatt's third win of the Alpine Ski World Cup season solidified his place at the top of the men's overall leaderboard and made it two wins from two in giant slalom races this season.

Odermatt was immense in Val d'Isère, posting the fastest time on each run to win by a whopping 1.40sec.

The Swiss completed the first course in 1min 1.89sec and the second in 1:01.73 - only one other skier could dip below 1:02:00 all day.

That was the Slovenian Žan Kranjec, who jumped from 11th to third with a brilliant second run.

Kranjec was still more than two second adrift of Odermatt.

Consistency helped Austria's Manuel Feller finish second.

Norway's Atle Lie McGrath and Henrik Kristoffersen completed the top five. 

Odermatt won the overall and giant slalom crystal globes last season and is well on his to doing the same in 2022-2023.

In the overall standings, Odermatt has a 140-point advantage over Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, the Norwegian winner of the last two World Cup races who is not competing in Val d'Isère.

A slalom contest is scheduled tomorrow.
