Five-time women's overall winner and reigning champion Mikaela Shiffrin will begin her 2023-2024 alpine skiing World Cup campaign on 29 October in the traditional opening giant slalom in Soelden.
The event in the Austrian resort will be held one week later than in previous years after warm conditions affected the 2022 edition. On the Rettenbach glacier the USA's star will have the first chance to extend her World Cup record, seeking her 89th victory.
Shiffrin, who is now coached by Norwegian Karin Harjo, will focus on tech events, but is expected to take part in some Super G and downhill.
The women's speed season kicks off on 18 November with the inaugural transnational downhill between Zermatt (Switzerland) and Cervinia (Italy), which was cancelled last season due to lack of snow.
The double Olympic champion will be in action in front of the home crowd on 25-26 November in Killington (Vermont), the only stop in the US of the women’s calendar. Canada will no longer host the traditional speed races in Lake Louise; instead two giant slaloms are scheduled at Mont Tremblant, Quebec, on 2-3 December.
Shiffrin's season will come to a close at the World Cup Finals, taking place in Saalbach (Austria), for the first time over two weekends: 16-17 and 22-24 March.
A total of 45 individual races (12 downhills, 11 Super-Gs, 11 giant slaloms and 11 slaloms) are included in the women's calendar. The individual combined won't feature on the World Cup schedule for the fourth consecutive season, while the parallel event has been dropped from the calendars for the first time in four years.
Mikaela Shiffrin: Chasing more records in the 2023/2024 season
Shiffrin will start her 14th campaign in the sport's top-tier circuit as the most decorated alpine skier of all time.
Last March, the Colorado native broke Ingemar Stenmark's 34-year-old record for the most World Cup wins in history.
In a season without World Championships (the next ones will be in Sallbach, Austria, in 2025), the two-time Olympic champion will then be focused on further increasing her World Cup tally. Will she be able to break the record for most wins (17) in a season set in 2018/19?
The full women's calendar for the season is listed below.
