- The Men's Overall World Cup 2020/2021 involved 35 events in 5 disciplines: downhill, Super-G, giant slalom, slalom, and parallel. The sixth discipline, Alpine combined, had all of its events in the 2020–21 season cancelled due to the schedule disruption cased by the COVID-19 pandemic. In the next-to-last event during the season finals, French skier Alexis Pinturault clinched the overall season championship and the crystal globe that goes with it. The last four events of the season were scheduled to take place at the final, Wednesday, 17 March through Sunday, 21 March in Lenzerheide, Switzerland. Only the top 25 in each specific discipline for the season and the winner of the Junior World Championship are eligible to compete in the final, with the exception that athletes who have scored at least 500 points in the overall classification are eligible to participate in any discipline, regardless of standing in that discipline for the season. However, on 17 March, the downhill final had to be cancelled after three days of heavy snowfall. On 18 March, the Super-G final was also cancelled, eliminating events in which runner-up Marco Odermatt of Switzerland had a perceived edge over Pinturault. When Pinturault won the giant slalom held on 20 March, he gained an insurmountable lead over Odermatt. (en)
