Raich is back on World Cup podium
Benjamin Raich has reached a World Cup podium for the 91st, and probably last, time in his career at the same resort where he earned his first top-three finish 15 years ago.
The 36-year-old Austrian, who is considering retirement after the season, came runner-up to Olympic champion Ted Ligety in a giant slalom on the Podkoren course on Saturday. Raich was only 17th after the opening leg but posted the fastest time in a blistering second run to get his first World Cup podium since winning a super-G in Crans Montana Switzerland, in February 2012. Raich won the overall title in 2006 and finished runner-up five times.
