Marcel Hirscher reached an unprecedented run of dominance in Alpine skiing history on Saturday.
The Austrian clinched his record-breaking sixth straight World Cup overall title with his 44th career World Cup in a giant slalom in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia.
Hirscher, who turned 28 on Thursday, now owns more World Cup overall titles than any man in history, breaking his tie with Luxembourg’s Marc Girardelli.
Austrian Annemarie Moser-Proell owns the women’s record of six overall titles, but they were not all in a row.
This only increases the pressure on Hirscher to deliver in PyeongChang.
