TL;DR

Mikaela Shiffrin finally clinched Olympic gold in slalom at the Milan-Cortina Games, posting a 1:39.1 total and winning by 1.5 seconds over Camille Rast—the largest Olympic alpine-skiing margin since 1998—capping a comeback after a rough Olympic buildup and a 2024 crash, and making her the youngest and oldest U.S. woman to win Alpine skiing gold.
