BEIJING (AP) — Two-time Olympic champion Mikaela Shiffrin’s second race at the Beijing Games was over even more quickly than her first. The 26-year-old American skidded out of control about five seconds into the opening run of the slalom Wednesday and was out of the event, just like that. That was even less time than her 10-second-or-so trip down the hill in the first run of the giant slalom on Monday. This time, Shiffrin stood for a moment beside...

ZHANGJIAKOU, China (AP) — Snowboarders Patrizia Kummer and Zan Kosir had something in common Tuesday in the Olympic parallel giant slalom race — an early exit. Something else, too: Both spent time in isolation leading into their races because of virus protocols. For Kummer, it was 21 days away from other people after arriving for the Olympics instead of getting a COVID-19 vaccination. For Kosir, it followed a positive COVID-19 test upon arriving in Beijing. He spent 11 days...

The American freestyle skier could get used to the view atop Big Air Shougang, though. “The like, crazy smokestack things in the back are pretty cool,” he said. “You get to see some of the mountains in the background, you got this temple here, the city’s that way, the steel factory.

The uproar over Whoopi Goldberg’s remarks about the Holocaust has catalyzed somber reflections by many American Jews about not only the legacy of the Holocaust but anti-Jewish discrimination in the United States and their sense of a collective identity. The actor and TV host swiftly apologized for saying this week on ABC’s “The View” that the genocide was not about race but rather “man’s inhumanity to man,” noting in subsequent remarks that she had failed to acknowledge that the...

ATLANTA (AP) — There was no way a sore shoulder was going to prevent Trae Young from playing. Not with Chris Paul and the Phoenix Suns in town. Young scored 43 points and led Atlanta’s flurry of 3-pointers as the surging Hawks beat Phoenix 124-115 on Thursday night to end the Suns’ 11-game winning streak. “I think I just grew up just watching these moments and thinking about being in these moments,” Young said about the opportunity to face...

MOSCOW (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday that “life goes on” despite a “difficult” COVID-19 situation in the country that has seen infection records for two weeks straight.

WARSAW, Poland (AP) — The defeat of a proposed COVID-19 law in Poland’s parliament over free testing for employees has exposed deep divisions inside the ruling right-wing coalition and the waning influence of the country’s most powerful politician, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, analysts said Wednesday. Some 61 lawmakers of the United Right ruling team led by Jaroslaw Kaczynski’s Law and Justice party abstained or voted against the law in the 460-seat lower house late Tuesday.
