Let's All Congratulate Petra Vlhova

Many congratulations to Petra Vlhova for a big GS win in Semmering yesterday, a huge win for the Slovakian pro.

Let's all make sure that this young woman is getting all of the credit she deserves. For the most part it feels that sports media is making the story more about Mikaela Shiffrin losing than Petra Vlhova winning. As an American and huge Shiffrin fan, of course it is a shock when she isn't on the podium. However, the day, in Giant Slalom, went to Petra Vlhova.

Vlhova is currently ranked second in overall points int he FIS.
