    Skier Alice Robinson is poised to resume her rivalry with American Mikaela Shiffrin three weeks earlier than expected

    Skier Alice Robinson is poised to resume her rivalry with American Mikaela Shiffrin three weeks earlier than expected


    The 17-year-old will decide on the eve of Sunday's second World Cup race of the season whether to compete at Killington in Vermont.

    Robinson stunned the reigning Olympic champion with a win in the season opener in Austria last month, before an MRI scan revealed bone bruising on her knee.

    She expected to miss this weekend's race, but a second MRI scan in Colorado has given her the all clear to resume training.
