Mikaela Shiffrin is 100% the best in the World Cup history book of skiing.
Shiffrin’s record-injured 100th career World Cup race on Sunday fulfilled a search for a serious crash in November.
Back to the race in her preferred slalom event, Shiffrin held and added to her first line of 0.61 seconds before Zrinka Ljutic in Sestriere. Shiffrin’s US team colleague Paula Moltzan was third and 0.64 back.
See how L Shiffrin records with the 100th world champion victory:
American Mikaela Shiffrin won the women’s slalom race in the Sestriere ski area in Turin, Italy, to win her 100th world champion victory. It is also her 155th World Cup podium that connects the brand defined by the Swedish Great Innemar Stenmark.
The 29-year-old Shiffrin also banded a record for men and women when her 155th career top-3 reached the Swedish Great Ingemar Stenmark on the podium.
Shiffrin crossed the finish line and looked at the scoreboard that showed its victory. She then looked over her left shoulder again with an expression of astonishment.
She laid her right hand on the snow to her helmet and was helped by Moltzan, who hugged her, on her feet.
Shiffrin initially cried when she was asked in an interview after the race what it meant after she had gone through everything in the past few months.
“Everyone was so nice and so supportive. I am so grateful, thank you,” she said.
Observe how L Shiffrin is overwhelmed after a historical victory of emotions:
American Mikaela Shiffrin thanked her fans and teammates in an interview after the race after winning her 100th World Champion victory in Turin, Italy.
Shiffrins 99. Sieg was achieved in a slalom in Gurgl, Austria exactly three months ago.
No. 100 was in a clear view a week later when Shriffin was emitted from a huge slalom in Killington, Vt.
The injuries that she suffered in a falling fall-a heavy trauma for her sloping muscles and a deep punctuality wound-did it for several weeks and left “PTBS-like” fear for Racing Giant Slalom.
In two huge slaloms in Sestriere, she took the 25th Friday and was for the first time since 2012 in front of the fastest racing drivers in the top 30 racing driver.
Shiffrin showed no signs of nerves with an aggressive second run to victory, half a second faster than Ljutic, who is a three -time winner this season in the slaloms of the World Cup this season.
“Many things had to go in my direction so that this happened. But I also did something right,” said a tearful shiffrin.
Ali Nullmeyer von Toronto achieved her best result this season and took 11th place of speed as a top Canadian with a time of 1:51:92.
Laurence St-Germain by Saint-Ferréol-les-Neeiges, Que., Was 27th among the 30 skiers who ended both runs, and dead 1: 53.32.

Shiffrin and Stenmark are the two biggest records in the 58-year history of the World Cup.
“It is much better than me. You can’t compare,” said Stenmark in an interview with the Associated Press two years ago.
His record of 86 World Cup victories was broken by Shiffrin in March 2023, almost 34 years after his last victory. Stenmarks 86th victory – a huge slalom in Aspen, Colorado in February 1989 – was also his 155th and last panel result.
In six starts, Shiffrin agreed to Stenmarks with top 3 results. Sunday was their 278th World Cup race and Stenmarks the last podium was in its 284th place, according to the Ski-db.com site.
