Mikaela Shiffrin graces the cover of the March edition of Sports Illustrated with the accolade of โ€œthe worldโ€™s most dominant athlete.โ€

The world’s most dominant athlete?ย The world’s most dominant skier for sure, but overall athlete… what do you think?

โ€œNone of (her fame and success) mattered when the call came, when Shiffrin, only 24, learned that her father, Jeff, had suffered a grave injury in an accident at home in Colorado. Mikaela and her mother, Eileen, immediately flew back from Europe and were able to spend Jeffโ€™s final hours by his side,” wrote Greg Bishop, the author of the Sports Illustrated piece.

The piece offers a bit of background into her family life and her beginnings as a skier.
