PODIUM WITH COCHRAN-SIEGLE (SILVER, LEFT), VON ALLMAN (GOLD, CENTRE) AND ODERMATT (BRONZE, RIGHT) STORY: Switzerland's Franjo von Allmen joined a very exclusive club of Alpine skiers as he powered to his third gold medal of the Milano Cortina Olympics with a super-G masterclass down the Stelvio on Wednesday (February 11).     The 24-year-old followed his gold in the downhill and team combined with another full throttle blast down the iconic Bormio track to win by 0.13 seconds from American Ryan Cochran-Siegle.     He is the first male Alpine skier since French great Jean-Claude Killy in Grenoble in 1968 to win three golds at the same Olympics — Killy doing it in downhill, slalom and giant slalom.     Von Allmen once again left his teammate Marco Odermatt in the shade. Odermatt has been the dominant male skier for five years and was tipped for multiple golds but had to settle for a bronze medal to add to his team combined silver.     Odermatt gave it everything but was ragged in the closing stages where Von Allmen was smooth, and came up 0.28 seconds short.     His last chance for gold will be Saturday's giant slalom.     Cochran-Siegle was third starter and took advantage of the firmer early conditions on a mild morning, repeating the silver medal he took in super-G at the 2022 Beijing Games.     The men's Alpine skiing programme continues with Saturday's giant slalom and concludes with Monday's slalom.
