ALTA BADIA, Italy (AP) — U.S.-born Atle Lie McGrath edged out Olympic champion Clément Noël to claim victory in a World Cup slalom Monday.

In the last World Cup race before Christmas, Noël had been first after the morning run but let his lead slip early in his second go at the Gran Risa course.

McGrath, who skis for Norway, finished 0.30 seconds ahead of Noël and 0.39 faster than third-placed Loïc Meillard, the world champion. McGrath took silver behind Meillard in February.

“I am so incredibly happy. This feels absolutely insane,” said McGrath, who said he wasted a winning chance in slalom one month ago by placing third at Gurgl, Austria.

McGrath now has four career wins on the World Cup circuit, all in slalom where he also has six runner-up finishes.

The 25-year-old Vermont-born Norwegian shapes as a strong medal contender in slalom at the Milan Cortina Olympics, scheduled Feb. 16 in Bormio.

McGrath’s father Felix competed for the U.S. at the 1988 Calgary Olympics in slalom and giant slalom.

Timon Haugan retained his lead in the season-long World Cup slalom standings after placing fourth, 0.53 behind teammate McGrath.

Haugan rose in the World Cup overall standings to a distant second, behind four-time defending champion Marco Odermatt, who does not race slalom.

Odermatt's nearest challenger had been Marco Schwarz, who failed to finish Monday's race after winning the classic giant slalom Sunday.

The next men’s World Cup race also is in Italy on Saturday, a super-G at Livigno. That is close to Bormio, which will stage all the men's Alpine races at the Olympics.
