In the slalom, Manuel Feller can win the small crystal ball. With two races to go, he is 169 points ahead of the German Linus Straßer in the standings. The decision has already been made in the giant slalom after the Swiss Marco Odermatt won all races of the season so far.
There are two other disciplines open for men: downhill and super-G. In both cases Odermatt is the hunted, in the Super-G ÖSV athlete Vincent Kriechmayr still has a minimal chance of getting the ball.
