Swiss ski star Marco Odermatt started the World Cup super-G season with a Thanksgiving win at Copper Mountain on Thursday, while Aleksander Aamodt Kilde reduced fiancée Mikaela Shiffrin to tears by making his comeback after nearly two years out. It denied Austria a clean sweep, with Raphael Haaser a further 0.05 back in third and Stefan Babinsky in finishing fourth. Odermatt, the defending overall champion, has won the crystal globe for the season-long title in super-G for the past three years. She later took a photo of Kilde with Odermatt, who was congratulating the Norwegian on his return to competition. It was a 47th World Cup victory for Odermatt, and his 16th in super-G.
