A closely watched story in the 2026 Winter Olympics, alpine skiing legend Mikaela Shiffrin has yet to reach the podium. She has one last chance to medal this week with slalom on the docket.
Even as the winningest athlete in her sport, Shiffrin has not captured an Olympic medal since the 2018 Games in Pyeongchang. The 30-year-old struggled in Beijing, unable to finish in three of the events she entered and leaving without any hardware.
She has not snapped that streak yet at the Milan Cortina Games, placing fourth in the team combined and 11th in giant slalom Sunday. Shiffrin's runs put her 0.92 seconds behind gold-medal winner Federica Brignone and 0.25 seconds off the podium entirely.
Will this be Shiffrin's redeeming moment in these games?
Here's how to watch the USA star in slalom, including TV channel and streaming options for the Olympic event in Milan.
