Mikaela Shiffrin is 23rd in the super-G at Val di Fassa, her first finish in the discipline in more than two years. She gets another eight points in the overall standings, big because Emma Aicher, who’s been gaining on Shiffrin, posted a DNF.

Very professional tournament from the U.S., three clean sheets, interesting lineup combinations, three wins. Goals drying up a bit without a clear No 9 the biggest negative to monitor.

I was very surprised it’s only her fourth international goal.

Mia Manganello gave it all to win bronze in speed skating mass start. What now? Team USA's Mia Manganello, 36, won bronze in the only Olympic event she focused on for 2026. Now, she's going to get her dog and sleep with her medal.

Mia Manganello was initially β€œhesitant” when coach suggested going all in on the mass start this season.
It got her a bronze medal in the final race of her career.

Jordan Stolz boxed in by competitors' tactics in mass start, doesn't get medal Jordan Stolz finished fourth in the mass start, missing podium by 0.09 seconds. That could have to do with competitors boxing him in rather than going for gold.

Next time, Jordan Stolz will know better.
