Shiffrin wins historic World Cup title

Mikaela Shiffrin secured her sixth overall World Cup crystal globe after a shaky start in the giant slalom. She clinched the title despite a 17th place first run.

Shiffrin began the giant slalom with a 17th place first run but improved in the second run to finish ahead of her rivals. Her victory secured the overall World Cup title and the crystal globe.

Emma Aicher needed a win in Hafjell and a finish 15th or lower to overtake Shiffrin, but she could not. The win marks Shiffrin's sixth overall globe, tying the record held by Austrian Annemarie Moser‑Pröll.
