"It was a thriller at Kranjska Gora, Slovenia, on Sunday, December 4, with some incredible racing, but the standout performances-hands down-came from winner Camille Rast and runner-up Mikaela Shiffrin, who finished well clear of the rest of the field. Rast and Shiffrin crossed the finish line more than a second-and-a-half ahead of Wendy Holdener in third. It marks Rast's second victory at Kranjska Gora after the 26-year-old won the Giant Slalom on Saturday, December 3."
"Last season's Slalom Crystal Globe winner Zrinka Ljutić ended her podium hopes with an early DNF, while Mikaela Shiffrin, wearing bib 3, showed what was possible on the course with a time of 50.34-more than two seconds faster than Dürr. While Switzerland's Wendy Holdener could not match the pace of the winningest skier of all time, her teammate Camille Rast showed she was in the same league, snatching the lead from Shiffrin by 0.10 seconds."
The Kranjska Gora slalom featured two runs with the fastest 30 skiers advancing and combined times deciding results. Camille Rast won, marking her second Kranjska Gora victory, and Mikaela Shiffrin finished a close second; both skiers finished more than 1.5 seconds ahead of Wendy Holdener in third. Run one saw Lena Dürr set an early pace before Shiffrin posted a 50.34 and Rast edged Shiffrin by 0.10 seconds. Zrinka Ljutić and Lara Colturi recorded early DNFs. AJ Hurt (bib 31) qualified 15th, Elisabeth Bocock (bib 36) advanced 25th, and Nina O'Brien sat 28th after run one.
