Federica Brignone Clinches Double Victory in Sestriere Giant Slalom

Mikaela Shiffrin continues her challenging return as Brignone extends her overall World Cup lead with back-to-back wins.

Italian skier Federica Brignone secured victories in both Giant Slalom races at her home event in Sestriere, marking her 34th career World Cup win.
Brignone's dominant performances also strengthened her position as the overall World Cup leader this season, with seven wins so far.
Mikaela Shiffrin, recovering from a serious November injury, struggled in the Giant Slalom, finishing 25th on Friday and failing to qualify for the second run on Saturday.
Shiffrin, who suffered a stomach injury during a crash in Killington, has shown progress in Slalom but remains cautious and inconsistent in the Giant Slalom discipline.
Germany's Lena Dürr improved significantly in Saturday's race, climbing from 23rd to finish 15th, while fellow German Fabiana Dorigo was eliminated after the first run.
