American Lindsey Vonn won Sunday's Super G race in Bansko, Bulgaria for her 20th World Cup success, edging out Swiss racer Fabienne Suter and Slovenia's Tina Maze.
Vonn, who Saturday had wrapped up the women's World Cup downhill title for the second year running, won in 1 min 14.49sec with Suter 0.58sec adrift and Maze 0.92sec off the pace.
With her seventh success of the season Vonn extended her overall World Cup lead over Germany's Maria Riesch, fifth in Sunday's race, to 391 points and is now on the verge of retaining her title.
Vonn is on a hot streak of form having captured both the super-G and downhill titles at last month's world championships in Val d'Isere, France.
