Yanqing, China, Feb 9, 2022 - Slovakia's Petra Vlhova produced a stunning second leg to win the women's Olympic slalom gold on Wednesday in a race shorn of the misfiring Mikaela Shiffrin.

Vlhova clocked a combined total of 1min 44.98sec over the two runs to edge Austria's reigning world champion Katharina Liensberger into silver by eight-hundredths of a second, with Switzerland's Wendy Holdener claiming bronze at 0.12sec.News Desk
