Petra Vlhova is set to battle it out with legendary American alpine skier Mikaela Shiffrin in the women’s slalom this week, with the Slovakian going toe-to-toe with the best in the business to upset the odds. It hasn’t been plain sailing for Vlhova so far in China, but the alpine skier from the small town of Liptovsky Mikulas in Slovakia — who won the overall World Cup title last year — is fancied to rival Shiffrin in what is set to be a contest like no other at Beijing. Ad/> Vlhova, 26, can boast a giant slalom gold in the 2019 Åre World Championships, whilst picking up bronze in the slalom at the same tournament.
