France's Clement Noel won ahead of compatriot
Victor Muffat-Jeandet with Switzerland's Ramon Zehnhaeusern
third.
Schwarz played it safe in tricky conditions to take his points
tally to an unbeatable 625 to Zehnhaeusern's 503 with one race
remaining.
The World Cup finals are being held in Lenzerheide, Switzerland
next week, starting with the men's downhill on Wednesday and
with the men's overall, downhill, super-G and giant slalom
globes still to be decided.
Three women's globes are also still up for grabs, with
Slovakia's Petra Vlhova leading Switzerland's Lara Gut-Behrami
by 96 points overall.
Vlhova also leads the women's slalom standings with a slender
lead of 22 points over Austrian Katharina Liensberger and
American Mikaela Shiffrin a further 15 behind.
Italy's Sofia Goggia is 70 points clear of Switzerland's Corinne
Suter in the downhill standings and set to return from a knee
injury after missing the world championships on home snow in
Cortina d'Ampezzo.
Goggia said on Sunday that she would take part in downhill
training on Tuesday and then decide whether to race.
"Physically I am doing everything I have to do in this kind of
situation. I feel quite calm," she said. "I will just try to
concentrate on the things I have to do."
Italy's Marta Bassino has already won the giant slalom globe and
Gut-Behrami clinched the super-G title last month.
