Slovakia\u2019s Petra Vlhova has a little winning streak going, taking her second consecutive World Cup slalom on Tuesday in Flachau, Austria, topping Sweden\u2019s Anna Swenn Larson, by 1-tenth of a second, and Mikaela Shiffrin in third by 0.43. seconds.<\/p>\n

If Shiffrin is going to win her eighth slalom globe in nine seasons, she\u2019s going to have to fight for it. Vlhova\u2019s win and Shiffrin\u2019s third-place finish closes the latter\u2019s lead in the discipline to 440-360 with seven races remaining in the season.<\/p>\n

There are four traditional slaloms and three parallel slaloms left and both count toward the slalom globe. The two will meet again on Sunday in a parallel slalom in Sestriere, Italy.<\/p>\n

In the stunning-trivia department, the last time Shiffrin \u201clost\u201d two consecutive slaloms in one season was more than five years ago, according to The Associated Press. Shiffrin finished fifth in Aspen on Nov. 30, 2014, and then fourth in Are, Sweden, on Dec. 13 of that year.<\/p>\n

As the U.S. Ski Team\u2019s Twitter feed rightly noted immediately after the race\u2019s finish, Shiffrin still holds the lead in the overall (quite comfortably, 886-613 over the Slovakian), but Vlhova is not backing down in the slalom chase.<\/p>\n

This story will be updated.<\/em><\/p>\n
