Norway had high hopes in this event, as the last World Cup winners was Norwegian, Kjetil André Aamodt in 1993 and leading the World Cup circuit in 1993-94 was his teammate, Jan Einar Thorsen. The gold medalist in the downhill from four days before, Tommy Moe, took an early lead as the third starter. Next up was German Markus Wasmeier, who had been World Champion in the 1985 giant slalom, but had won only two World Cup races since 1988. But Wasmeier edged out Moe and took the lead. Thorsen started sixth and Aamodt eighth but they could not catch either Wasmeier or Moe. When the ninth skier came down, Marc Girardelli, without catching the leaders, the gold medal was safely in Wasmeier’s hands. Moe would finish second with Aamodt winning bronze. Six days later, Wasmeier would add another gold medal by winning the giant slalom.
