Mikaela Shiffrin rebounded from a crash that she said left her with post-traumatic stress disorder with a record-equalling 15th medal at the World Ski Championships in Saalbach, Austria, on Tuesday.

Shiffrin teamed up with Breezy Johnson, who won individual downhill gold just weeks after returning to action from a 14-month ban for three anti-doping whereabouts failures, to win the combined event.

The victory, thanks to Johnson's fourth-fastest downhill and Shiffrin's third-fastest slalom, marked a stunning return to action for the latter following an abdominal puncture wound she sustained in a heavy fall in Killington in November.
