Vonn Sets Record for Most World Cup Points Lindsey Vonn set a women's record for the most World Cup points in a season after finishing eighth in Saturday's slalom. The race was won by Michaela Kirchgasser of Austria. Vonn reached 1,980 points to beat the mark of 1,970 set by Janica Kostelic of Croatia in 2006. "I am very happy with that," said Vonn, the overall champion who needs 21 points in Sunday's giant slalom to also overtake Austrian great Hermann Maier's 12-year-old record of 2,000 points. "I hope I can do it tomorrow," said Vonn, who needs to finish 12th or better. I will fully attack. Vonn is also an outside contender for the GS title. She has to win the race while leader Viktoria Rebensburg of Germany fails to score points. In that case, Vonn would win her record fifth crystal globe of the season after the overall championship, downhill, super-G and super combined titles. "I've got a minor chance," said Vonn, who won her first GS race this season. I will give everything and hope to make the podium. Kirchgasser finished in 1 minute, 32.57 seconds for her third career victory. She was followed by Veronika Zuzulova of Slovakia and Marlies Schild of Austria. Schild had already clinched the slalom title. She won six slalom races this season and 33 overall, leaving her one short of Swiss great Vreni Schneider's record. "I hoped to get that 34th victory today," the world slalom champion said. But finishing third was OK and there is always something you can do better next season. Zuzulova led after the first run and finished 0.12 behind. Zuzulova has had 13 top-three finishes in the World Cup but has yet to win, more than any other female skier.
