KRANJSKA GORA, Slovenia — Henrik Kristoffersen came from behind to win a men's World Cup slalom for his second victory in two days. The 2023 world champion from Norway stood sixth with 0.62 seconds to make up after the opening run. But his ninth-fastest time in the final run on a weakening course in the afternoon sunshine was enough for the victory. Kristoffersen also won Saturday's giant slalom. He led Timon Haugan by 0.17 for a Norwegian 1-2 finish. Manuel Feller of Austria finished 0.23 behind in third. World champion Loic Meillard posted the fastest opening-run time but dropped to fourth.
