Petra super happy with her 3rd place in SVK TV interview, all smiling, super cool, jumping and huging all around...what a change Maybe that "divorce" with Magoni was a good thing at the end, hmm

how is possible yo could not notice that ? There was almost nothing else this summer in the Alpine Skiing gossip world

 

Polish media only care about ski jumping The only news about Shiffrin was her zoom sessions with Iga Swiatek

Gut lost it at the bottom. Shiffrin wins.

 

Kilde is Shiffrin's new BF? Polish ES indicated that.

Yes. For a couple of months now.

You didn't see their Instagram Q & A  Well it was mostly Shiffrin answering questions and Kilde just laying there.

Czech commentator: Surprising that still nobody DNF in the 2nd run, quite impressive, right ?

 

...literally 5 seconds later.  Brignone DNF

Announcer curse is alive and well on any sports.

The only news about Shiffrin here is that she won today, which is marginal news by itself  

 

By the way, the British Eurosport commentator (another of those generic ones, "This is great skiing by the Swiss athlete!") mentioned Shiffrin dating Kjetil Andre Aamodt. Sort of a variation on the Slovenia/Slovakia thing (which he did as well in run one).

According to Australian Rugby League commentator Andrew Voss “Commentators’ Curse is the most powerful force in the known Universe”

A second exciting run is expected 

[Federer91 2,810]

Very tight run so far, everyone is on point.  There won't be many places for people outside the top 30 with these margins.
