The women's slalom in the 2020 Alpine Skiing World Cup involved 6 events, although there were 9 originally scheduled.
Defending champion Mikaela Shiffrin from the United States was leading the discipline standings by 80 points after 5 events when her father Jeff suffered what proved to be a fatal head injury at the start of February, and Shiffrin immediately left the tour to return home to Colorado, which eventually caused her to miss the remainder of the season.[1] Slovakian skier Petra Vlhová won the next event in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia, to move 20 points ahead of Shiffrin with three events remaining.[2]
But all of the final three events were cancelled. First, the slalom scheduled for Ofterschwang, Germany was canceled due to lack of snow and a bad forecast. Then the finals, scheduled for Saturday, 21 March in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] And finally, the one remaining slalom, scheduled in Åre, Sweden, for which Shiffrin had planned to return, was canceled due to COVID infections being detected among the skiers.[4] Thus, the current leader in each discipline -- in this case, Vlhová -- automatically became the season winner of the crystal globe for that discipline.[5]
Vlhová thus won the discipline title for the first time.
