A: Her shortest official time ever was 39.27 seconds at a World Cup slalom race in Garmisch-Partenkirchen on February 18, 2001. Tina came in 34th, 1.38 seconds behind Anja Pärson of Sweden, who was in the lead after the first run. It was Tina’s shortest official time ever because she only completed one run.
