American superstar Mikaela Shiffrin has put in two dominant runs to win the women’s slalom by a massive 1.50 seconds. It ended a run of eight straight Olympic races without a medal for arguably the greatest Alpine skier of all time. Canada avoided what would have been a stunning quarterfinal exit at the Olympics by rallying to beat Czechia 4-3 in overtime. Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo’s golden run continued as the Norwegian cross-country star secured his fifth gold at these Games and a record 10th overall by winning the men’s team sprint. Su Yiming of China won the gold medal in men’s slopestyle snowboarding.
