Hannah Kearney of the United States won a fourth straight Crystal Globe and the fifth of her career.

Kearney defeated Canada’s Chloe Dufour-Lapointe in the final. Her sister Justine Dufour-Lapointe had a shot at catching the American for the title, but crashed in the round of 16 and lost to Perrine Laffont of France.

With his win, Bilodeau broke freestyle legend Jean-Luc Brassard’s record for World Cup podium finishes with his 48th, including 19 wins.

“I never looked at the number of podiums,” he said. “For me it was a day-to-day process of trying to be the best in the world.

“Records are made to be broken. I’m sure it won’t last long. Mikael will break it in a year or two.”

The 26-year-old, who this year became the first freestyler to defend an Olympic gold medal, now plans to finish his accounting studies at Concordia University and enter the corporate world.

The three Dufour-Lapointe sisters finished just behind Kearney in women’s standings, with Justine second, Chloe third and Maxime fourth.
