More Alpine World Cup races canceled

BEAVER CREEK, Colo. (AP) — The men’s World Cup downhill, super-G and giant slalom races at Beaver Creek in two weeks have been canceled because of unseasonably warm weather.

The International Ski Federation (FIS) made the decision Thursday on a day when the resort was receiving snow. It’s the first time since 2001 that the entire program at Beaver Creek has been scratched, according to the U.S. Ski Team.

No makeup dates for the races have been announced.

On Wednesday, FIS said a lack of snow forced the cancellation of the men’s World Cup speed races Nov.
