Mikaela Shiffrin has some work to do in the second run of a giant slalom if she’s going to match Lindsey Vonn’s women’s World Cup skiing record with her 82nd win.
United States' Mikaela Shiffrin reacts after completing an alpine ski, women's World Cup giant slalom race, in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia, Saturday, Jan. 7, 2023. – The frustration on Mikaela Shiffrin’s face — mouth agape in apparent disappointment followed by pursed lips — lasted all of about 60 seconds.
The giant slalom result Saturday ended a five-race winning streak for Shiffrin and left her with 81 career victories, one fewer than Vonn's mark of 82. “Now the streak is over and we just go back to square one and keep fighting for the top step of the podium.” Grenier won by a comfortable margin for her first career victory by posting the fastest times in both runs. Marta Bassino finished second, 0.37 behind for her seventh straight podium result in giant slalom, and Petra Vlhova came third, 0.40 behind, for her seventh podium of the season — none of which have been victories.“The thing that stands out in my mind was just one turn. I went quite wide on this second run, but I don’t think that turn was what cost me so much,” Shiffrin said.
“I had four breaks and it just took a really long time to heal. So since the injury, I kind of focused more on giant slalom,” she said. “I feel like finally everything is coming together and I’m finally skiing at my best.” While there were few, if any, Canadian or American fans lining the Podkoren 3 course near the Italian border, there were plenty of spectators waving Slovenian and Slovakian flags.
