The disappointment in Beijing continued for Mikaela Shiffrin, although she took a step forward by finishing her race.
The American star who shockingly missed a gate and skied out in the opening seconds of Sunday's giant slalom and Tuesday's slalom competition also came up short of a medal in Thursday's super-G competition at the 2022 Olympics.
She posted a time of 1:14.30, which was good enough for eighth place of the first 11 skiers to compete.

From an American perspective, there was no doubt that Shiffrin's search for redemption was the biggest storyline of Thursday's race.
