Even the regional of the stage Mikaela Shiffrin had to admit defeat in front of the mastery of the one who remains an exceptional athlete when everything is working at its best. “I’m happy to improve once more today,” she declared at the FIS microphone. It’s not always easy, but I found the motivation.” To detect a trace of a Swiss woman winning two giants in a row, we even have to go back to 2001 and Sonja Nef!

The other Swiss women behind

18th at the end of the initial route, Michelle Gisin was able to gain a few ranks at the end of the second to finish 14th. But despite this slight rise, the Obwalden left a little taste of unfinished business.

The two other Swiss qualified for the second round remained quite far from the best. Wendy Holdener certainly moved up a few places, but she finished 23rd. Simone Wild was too soft during her second pass to rank 25th. Camille Rast (34th at 2”64), Andrea Ellenberger (35th at 2”66) and Mélanie Meillard (38th at 2”76) unfortunately did not make the cut in the first round, just like Vivianne Härri and Stefanie Grob.
