Concluding the 2024–25 alpine ski racing season, the Stifel Sun Valley Finals saw the world’s top 25 male and female alpine skiers travel to Idaho for the most important races of the season. Switzerland’s Marco Odermatt and Italy’s Federica Brignone secured the men’s and women’s overall titles, respectively. It’s been 17 years since an American man won the overall title (Bode Miller) and two years since an American woman has (Mikaela Shiffrin).
