Gisin returns from crash to win gold in Olympic combined
JEONGSEON, South Korea (AP) — Michelle Gisin's downhill crash left her with a headache and a little bit of self-doubt.
Enter big sister Dominique, who spent the night with the Swiss skier, answering all her phone calls, tucking her into bed and quelling any of those nagging doubts.
On Thursday, a restored Gisin turned in a solid downhill and a sensational slalom to win the women's Olympic Alpine combined over Mikaela Shiffrin.
Now Gisin has a gold medal just like her helpful sister, who tied for the downhill title at the 2014 Sochi Games.
