Mikaela Shiffrin continued her tentative return to racing in giant slaloms at Sestriere and did not qualify for a second run for the first time since 2012 by placing outside the top 30.

Mikaela Shiffrin will have to wait for her 100th alpine skiing World Cup win after failing to qualify for the second run of Saturday's giant slalom in Sestriere, which is led by Alice Robinson. The second run is set to be a dramatic one as two giant slalom world champions are right on Robinson and Gut-Behrami's heels.

A "proud" Alice Robinson has won New Zealand's first alpine ski world championships medal, securing silver in the giant slalom in Austria.
