Mikaela Shiffrin Clinches 98th World Cup Win in Levi Slalom

Shiffrin's victory in Finland sets her up to potentially reach 100 wins on home soil later this month.

Mikaela Shiffrin secured her 98th career World Cup victory by winning the season's first slalom in Levi, Finland.
She finished 0.79 seconds ahead of Austria's Katharina Liensberger, with Germany's Lena Duerr in third place.
Shiffrin's main slalom rival, Petra Vlhova, was absent due to recovery from knee surgery, paving the way for Shiffrin's dominance.
The American skier has now won a record 61 slalom races and 98 World Cup races overall, the most in skiing history across genders.
Shiffrin is expected to compete in Austria next week before potentially reaching her 100th win at Killington, Vermont, where she trained as a teenager.
