LAKE LOUISE, Alta. – Viktoria Rebensburg of Germany won her fourth career World Cup super-G race as her time withstood a late charge by Italy’s Nicol Delago.

Rebensburg finished in 1 minute, 20 seconds Sunday to edge Delago by 0.35 seconds. Delago was the 31st racer of the afternoon and bumped Corinne Suter of Switzerland into third place.

Three-time overall World Cup champion Mikaela Shiffrin of the United States wound up in 10th place. Shiffrin is the reigning champion in the season-long super-G competition.

The 30-year-old Rebensburg has won back-to-back super-G races dating to last season. She’s the first German woman to win two straight super-G races since Katja Seizinger captured five in a row in 1997.

Suter earned a bronze medal in the super-G at the world championships last season along with a silver in the downhill.
