MERIBEL, France (Reuters) - Canada’s Dustin Cook crowned his breakthrough season with a first World Cup victory in the Super-G on Thursday as Marcel Hirscher looked set for an unprecedented fourth overall men's title in a row.

Kjetil Jansrud was second, 0.05 seconds adrift, but recognised his hopes of beating Hirscher to the big crystal globe were effectively over after the Austrian finished fourth in one of his rare appearances in the discipline.
