United States' Mikaela Shiffrin, left, winner of an alpine ski, women's World Cup giant slalom, and third-placed Sweden's Sara Hector hug at the end of the race, in Kronplatz, Italy, Wednesday, Jan. 25, 2023.
Mikaela Shiffrin didn’t wait long to add to her record total of World Cup wins. Shiffrin added her 84th win in another giant slalom on the same course a day after securing record victory No. 83. Shiffrin again led from start to finish by dominating the first run down the steep Erta course and then adding to her advantage in the second run. Shiffrin finished a massive 0.82 seconds ahead of two-time Olympic silver medalist Ragnhild Mowinckel and 1.19 ahead of Olympic champion Sara Hector. She's now within two wins of the overall record of 86 wins held by Ingemar Stenmark.
