Disclaimer: Every single girl that I have ever loved had the last letter of her first name end in “A”

Who doesn’t love a winner?

But since storming onto the scene this woman has been untouchable!!

At 23 I was stoopid and dumb and didn’t think of doing anything remarkable with my life. This person won me over a while back and I truly appreciate the grace brought to a sport measured in hundreds of seconds!

One win behind Alberto “la bomba” Tomba is praise worthy!! Hence this thread.

Keep up the great racing, Mikaela!!

I'm not all super stalker-ish just think it is a note worthy milestone for such a young career! I'm looking at the great Ingemar Stenmark and doing the comparison that is what I think is impressive.

It was exciting to see the reverse start, watch the clock leave "green" for a bit, and worry until you realize, "She's got this!"

Nice way to pass the morning!

I didn't know any of that about her!

3 days to answer... As you can see, I do not spend all of my time on-line!

Hey! I found my ild thread!!

But More importantly…

She did it!!



Moments after winning her record-tying 86th World Cup race, Mikaela Shiffrin was asked by a Swedish broadcaster to directly address Ingemar Stenmark, the skiing standout who had promised to watch at home on television.



“No matter what I do, it doesn’t ever compare to what you achieved,” Shiffrin said into the TV6 camera from the lakeside resort. “Maybe I get the 87th victory, maybe not. But for me the biggest dream is to be mentioned in the same sentence as you.”

March 10, 2023, abcnews.go.com - Mikaela Shiffrin gets her record 86th World Cup victory.

How cool is that?!! And the race weekend is not over.

Awesome!

Skol!

There it is!!

A win in slalom has given Shiffrin an unequaled 87 World Cup wins!!

I would quote ESPN but I have the app and it ain’t on BBC yet.
