KRASNAYA POLYANA, Russia (AP) — Ivica Kostelic captured his second consecutive World Cup super-combined title with a victory Sunday on the 2014 Sochi Olympics course, but then hobbled away with an apparent injury.

Moving up from 15th after the downhill leg, Kostelic skied the fastest slalom run for a combined time of 2 minutes, 50.21 seconds.

Injury details were not immediately clear.

Beat Feuz of Switzerland dropped from first after the downhill leg to finish second, 1.16 seconds behind, and Thomas Mermillod Blondin of France was third, 1.77 back.

Feuz won the downhill Saturday and would have won the super-combined title if he had also won this race.

Kostelic also leads the overall standings, although Feuz is only 70 points behind.
