NZ teenager Robinson wins season-ending giant slalom
The Peninsula
New Zealand's Alice Robinson won the season-ending women's World Cup giant slalom in Lenzerheide with a storming second run on Sunday to deny Olympic champion Mikaela Shiffrin a 70th career victory.
Shiffrin had led after the first leg in the Swiss resort, with Robinson in fourth. With 0.77 seconds to make up, the 19-year-old produced the fastest run to beat the American by 0.28 seconds. The victory was Robinson's third in the World Cup, all in giant slalom, and first of the season. Slovenia's Meta Hrovat was third in a race held without spectators due to the COVID-19 pandemic.More Related News
