KVITFJELL, Norway—Mikaela Shiffrin’s quest to tie Swedish great Ingemar Stenmark’s record of 86 career World Cup victories now moves to his home country.

Shiffrin’s next race is a giant slalom in Are on Friday, as the American skier seeks one victory to match Stenmark ’s total on the all-time overall winners list—between men and women. The Swede competed in the 1970s and 1980s.
