Slalom is Mikaela Shiffrin's last shot at an Olympic medal in Italy. Good news? It's her best event

The winningest ski racer in history felt faster and more confident during the giant slalom a few days later, with her 11th-place finish more a testament to what she described as the “greatest show” GS had put on in quite some time than her actual performance.
