Lara Gut-Behrami made history with a powerful win at the Stifel Sun Valley World Cup Finals, while Italy’s Federica Brignone clinched the women’s giant slalom globe with a fearless second run. All three Stifel U.S. Ski Team athletes finished inside the top 15 and scored World Cup points on home snow.
A fierce course, major crashes, and a globe still hanging in the balance. The first run of the women’s giant slalom at the Stifel Sun Valley Finals delivered drama from the start — and the title fight is far from over.
Austria dominated the final regular-season slalom in Åre, with Katharina Truppe securing her first-ever World Cup victory and teammate Katharina Liensberger finishing second in a statement performance. Mikaela Shiffrin rounded out the podium in third, while Paula Moltzan placed sixth, giving the Stifel U.S. Ski Team two top-six finishes. With the World Cup Finals in Sun Valley up next, the stage is set for an intense battle for the season title.
Mikaela Shiffrin delivered a dominant performance in the first run of the World Cup slalom in Åre, Sweden, posting a leading time of 51.27 seconds. Germany's Lena Dürr followed closely, trailing by 0.43 seconds, while Sweden's Sara Hector delighted the home crowd by securing third place, just 0.48 seconds behind Shiffrin. This strong showing positions Shiffrin favorably as she aims for her seventh slalom victory at this Swedish resort.
Federica Brignone dominated the Åre giant slalom, securing her 17th career and fifth season win by 1.36 seconds. Alice Robinson took second, keeping her season lead, while 18-year-old Lara Colturi claimed her second career podium. North Americans shined, with Valérie Grenier finishing fifth, Paula Moltzan sixth, and Nina O’Brien charging 18 spots to 11th with the second-fastest second run.
Federica Brignone set the pace in the first run of the World Cup giant slalom in Åre, leading a tight battle with Sofia Goggia and Thea Louise Stjernesund. With warm conditions and a shortened course, eight racers finished within a second of the lead, setting up a thrilling second run. Mikaela Shiffrin, still searching for her best giant slalom form since returning from injury, failed to finish, missing another chance to regain confidence in the discipline.
Federica Brignone wins back-to-back in the Sestriere World Cup giant slaloms. Lara Gut-Behrami takes 2nd and Alice Robinson in 3rd.
