Mikaela Shiffrin equals Lindsey Vonn's record

The 27-year-old comfortably won with a combined time of 1:52.53, earning her an 82nd World Cup victory. In both of her races, she came out on top, leaving her rivals on the trail.

Shiffrin's morning run was the first skier on the course, and she separated herself from Federica Brignone, who was close behind. Valérie Grenier, the champion on Saturday, came in third.

As she proceeded down to Podkoren 3 with a lead of 0.24 seconds, Mikaela Shiffrin began aggressively attempting to extend it. The American skier won by an astounding 0.77 seconds while not feeling like she was carrying anything on her back.

Grenier was unable to duplicate her performance from the previous day after a series of severe mistakes. With a good second run, Brignone established Shiffrin's reputation.

In the giant slalom discipline event, Mikaela Shiffrin closed the gap with Marta Bassino to 25 points while keeping a 419-point advantage over Petra Vlhová in the overall World Cup standings.
