Also the post-race on the Rettenbach is creepy, between the awareness of the winner and a Shiffrin beat but ... smiling.

Alice Robinson literally "split" in the opening of the World Cup in Soelden, taking at only 17 years her first victory in the World Cup in the general surprise, but not too much, since everyone already knew the extraordinary talent of this 17 year old terrible.
On the day when his New Zealand left the semifinals of the Rugby World Cup, it was the starlet in Val di Fassa who took the whole scene, with a resounding success in front of the great favorite Mikaela Shiffrin, overcome for only 6 cents.
"Of course it is a great emotion, perhaps even unexpected - the little big Alice said in the post race - but I wanted to run a second race without making too many calculations. In short, I was not satisfied because I wanted to try to win, even beating Shiffrin ". Very clear ideas for the New Zealand, the second consecutive podium after the place of honor won in the Soldeu finals giant: “Many months have passed since that day, I had trained well and I knew I was ready, but not to be immediately in front . And instead...".
Mikaela Shiffrin was blown away, missing what would have been her second victory on the Rettenbach, but she is not too disappointed with the result: "I start with a podium and that's fine, even if the victory was there. Alice was very good and deserves this success, I knew that Soelden would be an unknown as every year, but all in all it was a positive race â€.
Smiles and how, Tessa Worley, the best of the big ones in the second race and still on the podium in the Rettenbach parterre, after the 2nd place of 2017 and the 12-month victory: "I came here with so many doubts, in the summer I skied shortly after the 'operation in the spring. Are they 70%? I said so and I confirm it, the podium is a very good result and in the 2nd run I managed to express myself at best â€.
