Good effort!! As a quick aside, did anybody see the living legend that is Lindsey Vonn race down the iconic, infamous and much feared Hahnenkamm streiff course under floodlights?? I always knew that - given the chance - the ladies could tear down it and tame it too - but at night?? Awesome from L Vonn as always.
Mikaela Shiffrin has set a new World Cup record of 83 wins by virtue of her latest triumph in Kronplatz, Italy.
She overhauls the previous record of Lindsey Vonn in the process.
And now Shiffrin is one win away from equalling the overall World Cup record after reaching 85 victories.
She is now one behind Swedish man Ingemar Stenmark who claimed 86 World Cup wins in slalom and giant slalom in the 70s and 80s.
Shiffrin has now levelled with the said Stenmark to stand on the brink of history.
One more World Cup win would see her become the best ever in World Cup history.
fantastic to see Rhding win. British skiing sucesses are rare.
Mikaela Shiffrin - take a bow.
Greatest alpine skier of all time.
87 World Cup wins.
Officially the best ever.
