Previous: 2024 | Next: 2026 |
The women's slalom in the 2025 FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup is scheduled to consist of ten events, including the final.[1] The slalom season began with the traditional "reindeer" opening race in Levi, Finland on 16 November 2024.
The season will be interrupted for the Alpine Skiing World Championships, this time in Saalbach, Austria during 4–16 February 2025.[2] The championship in women's slalom is scheduled for Saturday, 15 February.
Season summary
[edit]Picking up where she left off, defending champion Mikaela Shiffrin of the United States won the season-opening slalom in Levi, Finland (and the baby reindeer that comes with the victory) for the eighth time in her career, giving her an all-time record 98 total victories in World Cup skiing.[3] Shiffrin then won another slalom, her 99th World Cup victory, the very next week in Gurgl, Austria ahead of rising star (and first-time World Cup podium occupant) Lara Colturi of Albania, who just turned 18 the prior week and is the daughter of 2002 Olympic super-G gold medalist Daniela Ceccarelli, and 25-year-old Swiss skier (and fellow first-time podium occupant) Camille Rast of Switzerland.[4] However, Shiffrin was injured during a giant slalom run at Killington and had to miss the slalom there the next day.[5] The injury was eventually diagnosed as an abdominal puncture wound (which could not be stitched up due to the possibility of infection) combined with "severe muscle trauma", and she was anticipated to miss at least the next two weeks.[6] However, Shiffrin then had to undergo abdominal surgery to clean out the wound and old scar tissue, perhaps delaying her return to competition until the World Championships in February.[7]
In the first race without Shiffrin, Rast, who had posted her second-straight World Cup podium the day before, rallied from third on the second leg to post her first World Cup victory and take the lead in both the discipline and overall for the season.[8] Surprisingly, the next two slaloms were both won by another rising star (and previous non-winner), 20-year-old Zrinka Ljutić of Croatia, one just before New Year's Day and one just after (in which she edged veteran star Wendy Holdener of Switzerland on the second run), propelling her into the season lead in the discipline by just four points over Rast.[9][10] In the next slalom at Flachau (Austria), Ljutic failed to qualify for the second run, and Rast charged from eighth after the first run to edge out Holdener for the win and to take over both the lead in the discipline and the overall lead for the World Cup season.[11]
Finals
[edit]The World Cup finals in the discipline are scheduled to take place on Thursday, 27 March 2025 in Sun Valley, Idaho, United States.[12] Only the top 25 skiers in the World Cup slalom discipline and the winner of the Junior World Championship in the discipline, plus any skiers who have scored at least 500 points in the World Cup overall classification for the season, are eligible to compete in the final, and only the top 15 earn World Cup points.
