Perrine Laffont wins the big moguls crystal globe in Almaty
With a smile, Laffont won a new crystal globe this Friday, the 8th of his career. Without the presence of her direct competitor in the general classification, the Australian Jakara Anthony, the French Perrine Laffont was already assured of winning the big crystal globe even before embarking on the track of Almaty (Kazakhstan), for the front -last stage of the World Cup in singles.
Perrine Laffont took no risk and completed the run that titled her three weeks ago in Georgia during the World Championships. The reigning double World Champion thus won her 29th career victory in the World Cup. Laffont (rated 77.96) wins ahead of Americans Jaelin Kauf (76.30) and Tess Johnson (73.35).
Fantine Degroote finished 7th, at the gates of the super final. An encouraging performance for the young 21-year-old skier. Camille Cabrol took 13th place in this stage. Among the men, Benjamin Cavet finished in 7th place in a race won by Canadian Mikaël Kingsbury, also assured of a 23rd career crystal globe, a record.
