Switzerland wins Nations Cup again

At the end of the 2025/26 season, Switzerland once again topped the standings for World Cup points, winning for the fourth consecutive time.

Switzerland has won the Nations Cup for the fourth consecutive season.

Italy also finished third in both this season and last season. The Italians scored 6,680 points this season.

Men made the biggest contribution to the Nations Cup victory. The Swiss alpine skiers also lead the men's standings, with the Austrians in second and the Norwegians in third.

The women's standings look completely different - the United States had the best women's team, scoring 4,548 points. The US women's team topped the standings at the end of the season for the first time in 44 years. Alongside Mikaela Shiffrin, Paula Moltzan also had an excellent season, earning 784 points. Lindsey Vonn also made a significant contribution, managing to score 590 World Cup points before her fall.

Austria finished second in the women's Nations Cup standings with 4,083 points, while Italy was third with 3,567. Federica Brignone and Lara Gut-Behrami did not compete this year; they scored a large number of World Cup points last season. A year ago, Italy won the women's Nations Cup, Switzerland finished second and Austria third.
