SCHLADMING, Austria -– Adding to her already historic season, Lindsey Vonn of Vail captured her 16th career Audi FIS Alpine World Cup title with a sixth place finish in Thursday’s super G.

Teammate Julia Mancuso of Squaw Valley was second on the day behind German Viktoria Rebensburg to lock the number two spot in the season-long super G standings and jump to fourth in the overall.

Leanne Smith of North Conway, N.H., was fifth for a career best super G as three Americans finished in the top six.

Vonn now has 1,948 World Cup points, edging her closer to the single-season record of 2,000, held by Austrian Hermann Maier with two races remaining.

Vonn scrubbed a 1.22 second lead after her speed carried her too low into a turn near the bottom of the course.

German Viktoria Rebensburg won from bib five for the first super G victory of her career.
