KITZBUREHEL, Austria (AP) Aksel Lund Svindal won a World Cup super-G on Friday, extending Norway's winning streak on the men's circuit to five races.
Svindal won in 1 minute, 11.79 seconds on the Streifalm course for his seventh victory of the season, beating Andrew Weibrecht of the United States by 0.31, and Hannes Reichelt of Austria by 0.42.
Svindal extended his lead in the overall standings over four-time defending champion Marcel Hirscher of Austria, who finished outside of the top 20.
After sweeping the previous four races - in Wengen and Adelboden, Switzerland - Norway has now won five straight events for the first time.
The super-G also counts as the first portion of a super-combined event, with the results of a slalom to be added later Friday.
