Alpine Superstar Mikaela Shiffrin Ready for a 'Summer of Preparation'

The Audi FIS World Cup Ski Finals ended last week in iconic Sun Valley, Idaho. The first destination ski resort hosted the world's best alpine ski racers for the 2025 Stifel Sun Valley Finals. The finals took place outside Europe for the first time in seven years. Thousands of fans worldwide descended upon Sun Valley to take in the elite racing and the festival-like atmosphere presented during the week-long competitions. Among the elite athletes, none shined brighter than America's Mikaela Shiffrin - who owns the record for most World Cup ski wins, now at 101. Shiffrin came to these finals on a comeback and a mission. Her World Cup was derailed last November at the Killington Cup in Vermont when she suffered a brutal fall and injury, which resulted in a gruesome puncture wound on the right side of her abdomen. The accident scarred Shiffrin physically and mentally and forced her off the slopes for months to recover. Shiffrin attacked her rehabilitation and returned to World Cup competition in Sestriere, Italy
