Mikaela Shiffrin, 95th victory at the World Cup in alpine skiing, a record
The American won another victory after a tense second round. In the end, she was 14 hundredths ahead of Croatian Zrinka Lutic (19). Swede Anna Sven Larsson took the podium – 81 hundredth.
On this very difficult course, the best skier in history had an advantage of more than half a second after the first stage. In the second, she did not perform so well, but managed to maintain the lead, losing only 38 hundredths to the young Croatian.
The 28-year-old American champion won her 58th slalom and is now unopposed in the World Cup standings after Slovakia’s Petra Vlgova (2nd) was injured the day before, tearing the cruciate ligament in her right knee and finished its season, writes News.ro.
