Mikaela Shiffrin is the winningest alpine skier of all time and has achieved numerous accomplishments throughout her career. In her recent interview with Eurosport via the Olympics, she expressed her thoughts on her latest victory in the slalom event at the World Cup Finals at Sun Valley. She mentioned,

“Yes, it felt really good. It wasn't easy conditions, but I felt just really on point with my timing. Now I can say my slalom is really on point. It's nice to finish the season with a strong performance, also in conditions I don't normally feel super comfortable in, but I could ski really well and that gives me a very good motivation for the training in the summer period and next season.”

She continued,

“It's so exciting to have a crowd like this and an atmosphere in the US that is so supportive of ski racing. In the end, that was the thing that gave me a little bit of intensity that I needed.”

Along with her Olympic and World Championships feats, Shiffrin has eleven discipline globes and five overall crystal globes. She has registered eight World Cup slalom wins at Levi, etching a record at the venue. She has notably received seven nominations for the Laureus Award so far.
