Mikaela Shiffrin races for more gold medals as the world Alpine skiing championships conclude this week, live on NBC Sports, Olympic Channel and Peacock Premium.
Shiffrin, who took super-G bronze and combined gold in her first two races at worlds to become the most decorated U.S. skier in world championships history, races her primary events of giant slalom on Thursday and slalom on Saturday in Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy.
The men also have those technical events, where Frenchman Alexis Pinturault (GS) and Austrian Marco Schwarz (slalom) are the favorites. The top American men in recent seasons — Ryan Cochran-Siegle, Tommy Ford and Ted Ligety — are all out with injuries, with two-time Olympic champion Ligety retiring.
