Canada's Laurence St-Germain caused a massive upset by winning world slalom gold in Meribel on Saturday, outgunning favourite Mikaela Shiffrin who took silver.
St-Germain had been third fastest after the first leg and held her nerve on the second run for a winning aggregate time of 1min 43.15sec.
Shiffrin suffered a terrible second run to finish 0.57sec off the Canadian's pace, with Germany's Lena Duerr taking bronze (+0.69).
