BEIJING (AP) — Mikaela Shiffrin skied out in the Alpine combined and once again was unable to finish a race at the Beijing Olympics. She will leave the 2022 Games without an individual medal after participating in all five women’s events. The 26-year-old American won two golds at past Olympics but did not complete three of her five races in China. Shiffrin was fifth-fastest in the downhill portion of the two-run combined on Thursday morning but fell early in the slalom leg in the afternoon. She sat for a few seconds, then rose and shook her head. Shiffrin said she was not sure what went wrong in Beijing.
