Anna Swenn Larsson was responsible for a fine first run in the slalom in Lienz. And it looked for a long time that the Swede would be able to grab the season’s first podium.
There was no podium, but by far the season’s best for the star – who finished fourth, despite the back problems.
– That was a giant step in the right direction. You can say that she is back, says commentator Johan Ejeborg in the broadcast.
Hector lost – after yesterday’s podium
Sara Hector was seventh best after the first race. But lost a lot in the second.
– Oh, that went in the wrong direction for Sara Hector, says Ejeborg.
Mikaela Shiffrin won in style and crushed the opposition when the world’s best was 2.34 ahead of Lena Dürr.
