Beaver Creek, Colorado, USA (GenevaLunch) - Swiss Graubuenden skier Carl Janka pulled off the unusual feat of winning three events in one weekend at Beaver Creek, adding the giant slalom event Sunday to his Friday and Saturday downhill and super combined wins. The 23-year-old was bowed to by the last man to take three World Cup races in a row, Aksel Lund Svindal, who did it 2.5 years ago.
