Sara Hector is in great shape.
The Swede won Olympic gold in the giant slalom the day before yesterday, and now looks to be able to take another medal.
Hector fastest in the start
In slalom, where she has never placed better than fifth in the World Cup, she is in third place after all top skiers have run the first run.
She was fastest of all in the first intermediate time, and in the finish she was third - only twelve hundredths behind first starting Lena Dürr, who was fastest in the first run.
Between them is the Swiss Michelle Gisin.
- Now it's just a matter of keeping focus and giving the iron in the other.
It's completely crazy that I'm so good here, I've barely trained slalom.
Absolutely sick, she tells Discovery.
Small medal chances for Swenn Larsson
Things went worse for Anna Swenn Larsson, who before the Olympics was seen as a medal jumper.
But after the first slalom race, the medal opportunities look small.
Slog Shiffrin
After a decent start, she lost more and more the longer the ride went, and when she finished it was the worst time of the three who then drove, a full 1.27 behind leading German Lena Dürr.
After eight skiers went down the hill, Anna Swenn Larsson had only beaten one skier: The American megastar Mikaela Shiffrin.
Shiffrin, who went out after five gates in the giant slalom the day before yesterday, went out already after three gates in tonight's competition.
The competition is ongoing
