Two‑time Olympic champion Jakara Anthony has secured the seventh FIS World Cup Crystal Globe of her decorated career after the final events of the season in Azerbaijan were cancelled due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

The New South Wales Institute of Sport (NSWIS) moguls skier finished the season equal first on the mogul skiing World Cup standings with 360 points, tied with American Olivia Giaccio. Anthony claimed the Crystal Globe on the tiebreak, having recorded more World Cup victories during the season.

The result brings her career total to seven Crystal Globes, including three in moguls, two in dual moguls and two overall titles.

She also concluded the season ranked second in the overall mogul standings and sixth in dual moguls.

In the men’s competition, two‑time Olympic medallist Matt Graham finished the season second on the mogul World Cup standings. Graham trailed Japan’s Ikuma Horishima by just 11 points heading into the cancelled final World Cup, where he would have been in contention for the second Crystal Globe of his career.

Graham also finished the season ranked second in the overall standings and eighth in dual moguls.
