Three-time defending discipline champion Mikaela Shiffrin from the United States won the first two slaloms in the season, but then suffered an injury during training in Åre, Sweden in early December,[1] which caused her to miss the two months at the heart of the season; she did not return until mid-February (and won all three slaloms she entered, although it was too late for the season crown).[2]

Without Shiffrin competing, Frida Hansdotter of Sweden, who had been runner-up in the discipline the prior two seasons, overtook Shiffrin and jumped into the lead, and even a late push from Slovakian skier Veronika Velez-Zuzulová did not prevent Hansdotter from clinching the championship before the finals.[3]
