Michelle Gisin Wins Alpine Combined Gold; Mikaela Shiffrin Eliminated After DNF

The final individual gold medal for alpine skiing at the 2022 Beijing Olympics belongs to Switzerland's Michelle Gisin.

Gisin defended her title and won the women's alpine combined, featuring one downhill run and one slalom run, with a time of 2:25.67 on Wednesday. She was joined by Switzerland's Wendy Holdener (2:26.72 for silver) and Italy's Federica Brignone (2:27.52 for bronze) on the medal podium.

Mikaela Shiffrin was in position to challenge for her first medal of the Games after a strong showing in the downhill, but she skied out during the slalom portion in another disappointing outing.
