Carole Merle of France, still troubled by a knee she injured a year ago, won her second super giant slalom skiing race in two days at Meribel, France.
On a course soft from an overnight snowfall, completely different from the hard-packed track the day before, Merle, 26, took her sixth career World Cup victory. She won by more than half a second as she skied down the future 1992 Winter Olympic course in 1 minute, 7.51 seconds.
With one World Cup race left, Merle has 74 points, 12 ahead of Sigrid Wolf of Austria.
