CORTINA - A superstar Federica Brignone wins the gold medal in the Super-G at the Milan-Cortina Olympics. Ten months after a serious injury involving a fractured tibia and torn knee ligament, the Aosta-born champion returns to prominence as Italy's top skier. On the Tofane slope, she beat France's Miradoli by 0.41 seconds and Austria's Huetter by 0.52 seconds. The historic Italian day was further enhanced by a strong fifth-place finish from Laura Pirovano and a seventh-place finish from Elena Curtoni. A fall, however, stopped Sofia Goggia. The spirit of a champion, like that of her mother, is in 35-year-old Federica Brignone's DNA.
