KRANJSKA GORA, Slovenia (AP) — Mikaela Shiffrin is leading the first run of a giant slalom and in prime position to match Lindsey Vonn’s women’s World Cup record with her 82nd victory. Shiffrin established an advantage of 0.24 seconds ahead of Federica Brignone of Italy and was 0.39 ahead of Valerie Grenier, the Canadian who won on the same course a day earlier. No other skiers were within seven tenths of a second of Shiffrin. If she does win Sunday, Shiffrin could then break Vonn’s mark in a night slalom scheduled for Flachau, Austria, on Tuesday. Vonn retired four years ago.
