Odermatt joins Austrians Annemarie Moser-Pröll (1971-75) and Marcel Hirscher (2012-19) as the only Alpine skiers to win four consecutive overall titles, the biggest annual prize in the sport given to the top skier combining results across all events (downhill, super-G, giant slalom, slalom).

Meillard led Lucas Pinheiro Braathen by 0.34 seconds, followed by Fabio Gstrein of Austria one-tenth further back in third. Meillard has eight top-five results without a win in slalom this season, though he took gold at the worlds in Austria in February.
