Mikaela Shiffrin at FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup 2017-2018 Killington, Vermont, United States.
This year’s FIS World Cup season has already been full of surprises: Lindsey Vonn announced in a video that she will delay her retirement after an injury forced her to miss her favorite stop, Canada’s Lake Louise. The postponement buys her extra time to break Ingemar Stenmark’s record of 86 World Cup wins. Meanwhile, 23-year-old phenom Mikaela Shiffrin recently moved up to fourth on the all-time-wins list. She also became the first skier to win races in all six World Cup disciplines, after notching her first-ever victory in the super-G. Shiffrin is the favorite to win the overall title—which would be her third in a row—and is aiming to earn her fourth-straight slalom title.
The race is much tighter on the men’s side, with Austria’s Max Franz and Vincent Kriechmayr and Switzerland’s Mauro Caviezel all vying for the top spot. Franz took home surprising back-to-back wins at Lake Louise and Beaver Creek, while the seven-time World Cup overall champ, Austria’s Marcel Hirscher, who has been called the best skier in the world, has had a bit of a slow start. But there’s plenty of life left in this season, with the World Championships in February and near-weekly races until mid-March.
Here’s how to tune into the action.
Most events will be streamed live on NBCsports.com, the NBC Sports app, and the Olympic Channel’s website and app, with all Olympic Channel events also available on NBC Sports platforms.
