Swiss skier Camille Rast wins the women’s slalom at the Alpine skiing world championships

SAALBACH-HINTERGLEMM, Austria (AP) — Swiss skier Camille Rast won the women’s slalom at the Alpine world championships on Saturday.

Mikaela Shiffrin finished fifth and missed out on what would have been the American’s record-setting 16th career medal from the worlds. She shares the best mark with German skier Christl Cranz, who won 15 medals in the 1930s.

Rast held on to her first-run lead to beat her Swiss teammate and silver medalist Wendy Holdener by 0.46 seconds.

Katharina Liensberger of Austria was 1.32 seconds behind in third took bronze.
