Vonn became the second woman in history to claim 36 wins in the World Cup following Austrian legend Annemarie Moser-Proell, who set the record in January 1980, reports Xinhua.
Last year in Italy, Vonn broke Moser-Proell’s record of 62 victories and now has 72 World Cup wins across all Alpine disciplines. She already held the record for most super-G victories with 25. That discipline was introduced in the 1980s after Moser-Proell had retired.
Vonn, four-time overall champion, will have one more record to chase as the Austrian holds six overall titles.
In Saturday’s race, Vonn held a comfortable lead after the first run and finished in an aggregate time of 2 minutes, 11.17 seconds, one second ahead of Larisa Yurkiw of Canada.
Cornelia Huetter of Austria was 1.66 seconds behind, in third.
