Mikaela Shiffrin is sticking to a plan to, at first, focus on slalom and giant slalom races as she returns to the Alpine skiing World Cup.
Shiffrin will not race this weekend’s super-Gs in St. Moritz, Switzerland (Saturday and Sunday, 5:30 a.m. ET, Olympic Channel and Peacock Premium). Her next possible races are giant slaloms in Courchevel, France, on Dec. 12-13.
It’s unlikely that Shiffrin enters speed races later in December — two downhills and a super-G in Val d’Isere from Dec. 18-20 — which would keep her schedule to exclusively slaloms and giant slaloms until the new year.
