Twenty-one-year-old skier Zrinka Ljutić has won the Small Crystal Globe in slalom!
In the last slalom of the season, she took 10th place, which was enough because her competitors failed to achieve good results. Wendy Holdener finished fourth, Katharina Liensberger fifth, and Camille Rast only 14th.
Ljutić won 541 points in slalom races this season, 32 more than second-place Liensberger. Rast took third place with 492 points, while today’s winner, Mikaela Shiffrin, finished in fourth place, 55 points behind the Croatian skier.
The winner of the last slalom of the season was American Mikaela Shiffrin, who won her 101st overall World Cup victory and her 64th in slalom. In second was German Lena Duerr, and in third was Slovenian Andreja Slokar.
Ljutić won points in nine out of ten slalom races this season, in which she achieved three victories (Semmering, Kranjska Gora, Courchevel) and was second once (Sestriere). She won 541 points, 32 more than Austrian Katharine Liensberger, who was fifth in the World Cup final.
This is the sixth Small Crystal Globe in slalom for Croatian skiing. Janica Kostelić won three (2001, 2003 and 2006), while her brother Ivica won two (2002 and 2011). Ljutić finished fourth in the overall World Cup standings with 816 points, 778 behind winner Federica Brignone.
