Kostelic takes slalom gold
Kostelic won her second gold of the Games
Croat skier Janica Kostelic clinched her second gold of the Salt Lake City Games as she won the women’s slalom. Kostelic had already claimed the combined event and took silver in the super giant slalom. As heavy snow caused difficult, slippery conditions, she triumphed over France’s Laure Pequegnot and Swede Anja Paerson. Kostelic clocked a combined time of one minute, 46.10 seconds for the two runs. Pequegnot won the silver in 1:46.17, with Paerson finishing in 1:47.09. More soon.
