Scheib seals World Cup giant slalom with Are win, Shiffrin fifth after scare

The 31-year-old Shiffrin had been on pace for a blistering first run before making a significant mistake at the bottom of the course to finish in 12th. But the American still managed a fifth-place finish after the second run allowing her to maintain a comfortable lead in the overall World Cup standings over Germany's Emma Aicher, who finished fourth in Are. While Shiffrin will have to wait to find out if she has secured her sixth overall title, Scheib was able to celebrate wildly in the finish area.
