Winter Olympics – Mikaela Shiffrin reveals different mindset ahead of women’s downhill event at Beijing 2022
Mikaela Shiffrin has decided to compete in the women’s downhill event for the first time at a Winter Olympics, but said she is no longer focusing solely on winning a medal. Shiffrin's Olympics got off to a disastrous start at Beijing 2022 as she failed to finish her opening runs in both the giant slalom and slalom, two events where she was a gold-medal favourite. She then came ninth in the super-G — the first time she competed at that event in the Olympics.
