Tearful Shiffrin, out of 2nd race, 'processing a lot'

Mikaela Shiffrin said her second straight exit in the first run of a race "makes me second-guess the last 15 years, everything I thought I knew about my own skiing and slalom and racing mentality."

I saw that and at her level in this field I just don't know how that could happen. She was the favorite for the gold. I too feel for her. She was in shock and pain, sitting there for 20 minutes. Later, after she recovered, I heard her discuss what happened and she was at that point, being honest, she made a huge mistake.

Mrs. GuitarCock was like "turn it off, I can't watch this! This is too horrible!"

While I did feel bad for Mikaela, she's going to be just fine. She already has 2 Olympic gold medals and she's 26

I wonder if she should just pull out of her remaining Olympic events for this Olympiad?
