You are eleven hundredths off the podium. Corinne Suter, Wendy Holdener and Mélanie Meillard remain at 20th, 21st and 25th.

Shiffrin, who was already in front after the first round and benefited in the afternoon from a Brignones blunder and Marta Bassino’s failure, won with a reserve of 82 hundredths. Slovak Petra Vlhova was the penultimate goal to be undone in the first set.

For Shiffrin it is the first win since the Super-G in Bansko on January 26. After this he withdrew from the World Cup due to the death of his father and did not run for 300 days.
