Mikaela Shiffrin extended her winning streak with a 1.23-second lead in Austria, ranking first in slalom and overall World Cup standings after three events.
- On Sunday in Gurgl, American ski star and Olympic champion Mikaela Shiffrin won her second straight World Cup slalom of the Olympic season, finishing 1.23 seconds ahead of Lara Colturi.
- Choosing to focus on slalom and giant slalom ahead of the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics, Mikaela Shiffrin said she `had to push so hard` to overcome tough conditions.
- On Sunday, Mikaela Shiffrin's victory marked her 66th World Cup slalom win and 103rd overall, after leading Colturi by 0.31 after the opening run and widening the gap in the final leg.
- Looking to next weekend at Copper Mountain, Shiffrin and Colturi now sit first and second in the slalom and overall World Cup standings after three events, with Shiffrin heading into home races in Colorado.
