- American star clinches fifth overall World Cup championship
- Goggia finishes second and clinches downhill discipline title
American ski star Mikaela Shiffrin was assured of winning a fifth overall World Cup title on Saturday with seven races left in the season despite falling short in her latest bid for a record-tying 86th career win.
The 27-year-old finished ahead of her only rival for the crown, Swiss racer Lara Gut-Behrami, in the women’s downhill at Kvitfjell, opening an insurmountable margin on the overall points leaderboard.
