Mikaela Shiffrin has all but wrapped up her fourth World Cup season slalom title. And she just moved closer to what could be her first World Cup overall title.
Shiffrin won her sixth slalom in eight races this season, prevailing in a bracket-style, head-to-head event in Stockholm on Tuesday night.
Shiffrin beat her top slalom rival, Slovakian Veronika Velez Zuzulova, by .44 of a second in the head-to-head final.
Shiffrin can clinch her fourth World Cup slalom season title by finishing fourth or better in the next World Cup slalom in Squaw Valley, Calif.
