Shiffrin Captures Copper Mountain Slalom for Record 104th World Cup Win

The home-soil triumph strengthens her slalom lead, widening her cushion in the overall race.

Overview

  • Shiffrin posted a two-run 1:48.75 to win by 1.57 seconds over Germany’s Lena Duerr, with Albania’s Lara Colturi third.
  • The victory was her 67th in slalom and extended an active slalom win streak to four races.
  • She remains atop both the slalom standings and the overall World Cup, holding a 90-point overall edge on Colturi.
  • One day earlier, New Zealand’s Alice Robinson swept both GS runs for her fifth World Cup win and the most by any woman from outside Europe or North America.
  • Copper Mountain hosted its first World Cup since 2001 before overflow home crowds at high altitude, with fresh snow delaying Saturday’s GS start by 30 minutes; the tour now heads to Mont-Tremblant.
