Canada's Laurence St-Germain claimed a shock victory in the world championships slalom as she beat favourite Mikaela Shiffrin to the gold medal on Saturday.
"At the end of two weeks, if I'm a little bit tired, I cannot move quick enough in slalom .
Germany's Lena Duerr took the bronze medal with Holdener failing to finish her second run after pushing too hard. "I was really stressed before the second run, and kind of nauseous, then started, made a bit of a mistake but kept attacking. I was asking where I should stand for second place on the podium but I ended up in the middle!"
