Shiffrin trails Rast after Kranjska Gora slalom first run
US ski star Mikaela Shiffrin clocked the second-fastest time behind Swiss Camille Rast in the first run of the World Cup slalom in Kranjska Gora on Sunday.
Overall World Cup and slalom leader Shiffrin was just 0.10 seconds behind Rast who led the way a day after claiming victory in the giant slalom in the Slovenian resort.
Reigning slalom world champion Rast looks to have overcome the hip problems that had plagued her since last season just over a month before the Winter Olympics get underway in Milan-Cortina.
The 26-year-old Rast has reached the podium in her last four World Cup starts.
Meanwhile, Shiffrin is looking to extend her slalom streak having won all five races in the discipline this season, in addition to last year's season-ender.
Swiss skier Wendy Holdener is third 0.77 seconds behind her compatriot with the second run scheduled to start at 1230 GMT.
Croatian Zrinka Ljutic, the 2024-25 World Cup slalom champion, was forced to retire after an early mistake.
Albanian Lara Colturi, third in the World Cup slalom standings before Sunday, also failed to finish, while German Lena Duerr trailed over two seconds off the pace.
