Having won the downhill two days earlier, heavy favorite Jean-Claude Killy was looking for the Alpine triple, hoping to match the feat of Austriaβs Toni Sailer in 1956. The menβs giant slalom was contested over two runs for the first time at the Winter Olympics. Killy opened up a huge lead of 1.2 second on the first run, trailed by Switzerlandβs Willy Favre. With the gold medal in hand, Killy skied conservatively on the second run, but still placed second on the run to American Billy Kidd, and won the gold medal by over two seconds. Favre placed only seventh in the second run, but still won the silver medal. Kidd had been three seconds back on the first run, and his fine second effort only moved him up to fifth.
