After the World Championships in Saalbach
Shiffrin emotional: “This borders on a miracle!”
Mikaela Shiffrin made an emotional post a few days after the end of the World Ski Championships in Saalbach. "It's nothing short of a miracle to have won gold in the team combined with Breezy, it's beyond my wildest dreams for these weeks," said the US American.
"It seems impossible to have come so far so quickly. But here we are: returning to competition after 10 weeks of injury," Shiffrin begins her post via X.
Shiffrin suffered bruising and a deep wound in her abdomen in a fall in the Killington slalom at the beginning of December. She subsequently underwent surgery and only made her comeback shortly before the World Championships in Courchevel, where she finished tenth. In Saalbach, she then won gold in the combined with downhill world champion Breezy Johnson. "Just coming here was a huge success," says the 29-year-old.
"It was inspiring"
praise for her teammates: "They are incredible! Their performances, the medals they won, the fighting spirit and determination that each and every one of them put into this season and this World Championship were inspiring," says Shiffrin. Postscript: "I am so grateful to be part of this team."
