The Latest: Weather has Shiffrin's debut in holding pattern

PYEONGCHANG, South Korea (AP) — The Latest on the Pyeongchang Olympics (all times local):

Mikaela Shiffrin's debut at the Pyeongchang Olympics is in a holding pattern with a third delay to the women's slalom start.

Strong winds, and now some steady falling snow, have put the race at risk on the Rainbow course at Yongpyong.

The opening run is now scheduled to begin at 11:45 a.m. South Korea time on Wednesday (9:45 p.m. on the U.S. East Coast,) after two previous delays of 15 minutes from the original 10:15 a.m. start. The second leg could then start at 2:45 p.
