Shiffrin has a perfect sheet coming out of Colorado as she has gone three for three in slalom races this season. It was definitely a just a matter of time before Miki qualified for her fourth Winter Olympics but achievement but its nice to have the wrapped up early in the competition season. Can’t wait to see her take the gates in Italy!
