Content overview: “Paula Moltzan, 32, Makes History with First World Cup Win by 0.01sec in Sölden Giant Slalo”. American skier Paula Moltzan became the oldest woman to win her first Alpine skiing World Cup race on Saturday, edging Albania's Lara Colturi by a razor-thin 0.01 seconds in the season-opening giant slalom at Sölden, Austria. The 32-year-old from Minnesota, who was fifth after the first run, delivered a superb second descent to post a combined time of 2:14.82, just ahead of Colturi's 2:14.83. Germany's Emma Aicher rounded out the podium, 0.52 seconds back.
The victory marks a career milestone for Moltzan, who had previously stood on World Cup podiums but never claimed the top spot. Her win underscores the depth of the U.S. women's technical team, even as superstar Mikaela Shiffrin slipped from first after the opening run to seventh place.
