"I was pushing so hard and I just hoped I ended up on the right side of all the gates. Now I’m a bit dead. Mentally I’m so tired," said Shiffrin, who was clearly spent after she crossed the finish line, briefly shaking her hands before dropping to the snow.Shiffrin could tie Stenmark's record of 86 World Cup victories by the end of the weekend, with slalom races on both Saturday and Sunday in Spindleruv Mlyn, Czech Republic.
"I think that Shiffrin will win more than 100," Stenmark told Olympics.com earlier this season,"and it doesn't make me sad at all."
