Mikaela Shiffrin captured her second Olympic slalom gold on a sun‑splashed Wednesday in the Dolomites, posting a 1:39.10 two‑run time that beat Switzerland’s Camille Rast by 1.50 seconds – the largest margin in any Olympic alpine event since 1998.
The 30‑year‑old became the first U.S. skier to win three Olympic gold medals, ending an eight‑year Olympic hoodoo that had stretched back to 2018. Sweden’s Anna Swenn Larsson took bronze, while fourth‑placed Wendy Holdener trailed by at least two seconds.
