Overview
- Paula Moltzan finished second and Lara Gut-Behrami took third as Scheib defended her sizable first-run lead.
- Mikaela Shiffrin placed fourth in a strong giant-slalom return following last season’s injury setbacks.
- Sofia Goggia crashed out early after catching a gate with her arm but was uninjured and skied to the finish.
- Italy’s depth was thinned by injuries to Federica Brignone and Marta Bassino, with Asja Zenere the only Italian to reach run two, ending 17th.
- Wind on the Rettenbach glacier was present but manageable, allowing both runs to go ahead, and the women’s circuit now heads to Levi on November 15 for slalom.
