In a stunning development, Mikaela Shiffrin’s second race ended even sooner than her first.
The American skiing star is out of contention for a gold medal in her second consecutive event at the 2022 Beijing Olympics after she skied out after the fifth gate in the first run of the slalom Wednesday. She had appeared to slip around the second gate, but kept her balance, only to ski off the course after the next gate.
The DNF comes two days after she skied out after the fifth gate in the first run of the giant slalom.
Correction: An earlier version of this post stated the wrong gate Shiffrin skied out after.
