Before the Olympics began, Michaela Schifrin talked about having so much attention focused on her.

So far, she has competed in three events.

Her best finish was the team combined, where she just missed a medal, finishing fourth.

Her final event is the slalom.

It's her best event.

At the 2014 Olympics, she won gold in the slalom.

Schifrin has a career total of two golds and one silver.

But since 2018, she has been shut out.

There were no medals four years ago in Beijing.

Today, she hopes to finish in the top three.
