SKIING

WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS: Lara Gut-Behrami dashed to gold in the women’s super-G at the world championships Thursday in Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy, and Mikaela Shiffrin took bronze in her first speed race in more than a year.

Gut-Behrami mastered the sunbathed Olympia delle Tofane course to finally win the only medal missing from her storied career. The 2016 overall World Cup champion beat Swiss teammate Corinne Suter by 0.34 seconds, living up to her billing as the favorite after winning the last four super-Gs on the World Cup circuit.

Shiffrin finished 0.47 behind in third. She had the fastest split times but lost her balance and got twisted around near the bottom of the course.

• Vincent Kriechmayr overcame a tricky course and high expectations to win the men’s super-G.

Starting fifth on a course never featured on the men’s World Cup circuit, the Austrian mastered the difficult Canalone passage about 20 seconds into his run, where the first three starters all missed a gate and skied out. He went on to beat Romed Baumann and Alexis Pinturault, who took silver and bronze respectively.

PEBBLE BEACH PRO-AM: Patrick Cantlay opened with seven birdies in eight holes and closed with two more birdies for a 10-under 62 as he tied the course record and took a two-shot lead in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE: The Champions League final is returning to U.S. network television after a one-year absence.

ENGLAND: Tammy Abraham put Chelsea into the FA Cup quarterfinals by scoring the second-half winner in a 1-0 victory over second-tier club Barnsley, which missed several chances to stage an upset.

Abraham tapped in from close range in the 64th minute after a low cross from Reece James to set up a quarterfinal against Sheffield United.

Southampton also advanced after a 2-0 win at Wolverhampton, with Danny Ings and Stuart Armstrong netting a goal apiece.
