SCHLADMING, Austria — Henrik Kristoffersen on Tuesday won his sixth slalom of this World Cup season, matching a feat previously achieved only by three of the biggest names in ski-racing history.
Alberto Tomba was the last to have won six slaloms, in 1994-95; Ingemar Stenmark did it in the 1970s and Marc Girardelli in the 1980s.
Kristoffersen, a Norwegian who was 1.10 seconds off the lead, in third, after the opening run of the night race, defeated Marcel Hirscher of Austria by 0.61 of a second and Alexander Khoroshilov of Russia by 0.77.
Kristoffersen and Hirscher also finished 1-2 in Kitzbühel, Austria, on Sunday.
