Stifel Celebrates Mikaela Shiffrin’s Historic 100th Win With Donation to Her “MIK100” Initiative
28 Fevereiro 2025 - 11:00AM
Stifel (NYSE: SF), the official team naming partner of the Stifel
U.S. Alpine Ski Team, is proud to celebrate the 100th career World
Cup victory for Mikaela Shiffrin this past weekend as she captured
first place in slalom in Sestriere, Italy, by supporting her
efforts to raise $100,000 for the Share Winter Foundation.
Shiffrin broke the all-time record for World Cup wins (86) back
in March 2023 and has continued to build on that incredible record
before notching her historic 100th win on Sunday in Italy. This
season, she picked up wins 98 and 99 in late fall, before an
abdominal injury at the Stifel Killington Cup in Vermont sidelined
her for nearly two months.
The historic 100th win came as she led by just 0.09 seconds
after the first run. But a clean and relaxed second run allowed
Shiffrin to claim victory by .61 seconds over Croatia’s Zrinka
Ljutic with Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski teammate Paula Moltzan placing
third.
In honor of the milestone, Stifel will contribute a $10,000
donation to Shiffrin’s “MIK100: Reset the Sport” initiative to
support learn-to-ski programs for youths in partnership with the
Share Winter Foundation.
“Mikaela continues to raise the bar and set new standards, not
just in skiing but in the history of sport,” said Stifel Chairman
and CEO Ronald J. Kruszewski, who was in attendance in Killington
when Shiffrin last had the 100 milestone in her sights. “To have
her win number 100 by coming back from injury like she has with
resilience and determination this winter is amazing to watch. And
for Mikaela to use the milestone to raise money for learn-to-ski
initiatives through the Share Winter Foundation is a testament to
who she is as a person and athlete, looking to spread the passion
and access to skiing to more people.”
In recognition of her accomplishment, Stifel created a new
broadcast spot celebrating the historic moment that will run
nationally, highlighting the uniqueness of Shiffrin’s outsized
talent yet humble character. There are also online digital and
social executions with Stifel print ads celebrating Shiffrin set to
run in select markets over the coming weeks as the World Cup
circuit returns to North America in late March. Creative production
was handled by Known, Stifel’s agency on the Stifel U.S. Ski Team
partnership.
“We are proud of our multiyear association with such an amazing
athlete and global ambassador,” added Kruszewski. “Mikaela has
changed the game and is building a legacy that goes beyond her
results as she looks for ways to use this platform of 100 wins and
create opportunities for others to engage in the sport.”
Shiffrin and the rest of the women of the Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski
Team have upcoming races in Norway, Sweden, and Italy before
returning to the U.S. for the Stifel Sun Valley Finals in Sun
Valley, Idaho, March 22-27, to finish the World Cup calendar for
this season.
