The American has won seven of the last eight events and took the GS world title last month. Shiffrin extended the all-time record for most career wins to 88. Shiffrin also set a personal best of 2,206 World Cup points from 31 starts this season. Thea Louise Stjernesund of Norway finished 0.06 seconds behind in second.
