Crash from 1 to 5
Shiffrin: “That went in the wrong direction”
US ski star Mikaela Shiffrin missed out on her 98th victory at the start of the World Cup in Sölden, slipping from first place to fifth in the giant slalom on Saturday. The reason: she took too many risks, said the ski queen after the race.
"Technically it was quite good, but I still need to get more intensity and body tension into it," said the ski queen after the first run. The half-time leader was 22 hundredths of a second ahead of Alice Robinson before the final, 40 seconds ahead of winner Federica Brignone and 2.41 seconds ahead of Julia Scheib, who finished third.
But why? Shiffrin, who was competing in her first giant slalom since January due to injury, said after the race: "I still have to adjust to getting the right intensity on the ski, I tried to take more risks, maybe that went in the wrong direction."
