Robinson wins super-G, Vonn 4th as returning Shiffrin fails to finish
New Zealand's Alice Robinson won the women's World Cup super-G in St. Moritz on Sunday as Lindsey Vonn placed fourth but Mikaela Shiffrin failed to finish on her return to speed racing after almost two years.
On an undulating and technical surface, Robinson, the best giant slalom skier this season, edged out France's Romane Miradoli by 0.08sec with Italian star Sofia Goggia third at 0.19sec.
Vonn finished 0.27sec off the pace to take fourth place on what has been a successful weekend for the American veteran on the Corviglia piste in the Swiss Alps.
The 41-year-old became the oldest skier to win a World Cup race in Friday's downhill, her first victory since 2018 -- and first in her comeback with titanium implants in her right knee.
On Saturday, the American narrowly missed out on a second straight World Cup downhill win at St Moritz, finishing second behind German Emma Aicher.
Shiffrin was racing in a speed event for the first time since her heavy crash in January 2024 on the downhill at Cortina d'Ampezzo in Italy left her with ligament damage in her left knee.
Starting with the number 31 bib, the record holder of 104 World Cup titles missed the last gate after a run where she was less than a second off the pace as she prepares for the Milan Cortina Olympics from February 6-22.
