Hirscher tops Kristoffersen to win World Cup slalom
Print Edition
MARCEL Hirscher posted the fastest second-run time to beat Norwegian rival Henrik Kristoffersen and win a men’s World Cup slalom in Santa Caterina Valfurva, Italy, yesterday.
Hirscher, who was third after the opening run, finished in a combined time of 1 minute, 54.54 seconds to lead Kristoffersen by 0.21. It was the Austrian’s 36th career win. Kristoffersen, who beat the Austrian to win both previous slaloms this season, remained in the lead of the discipline standings. Hirscher went top of the overall standings again, leading Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway by 85 points. Svindal doesn’t compete in slaloms. First-run leader Aleksander Khoroshilov of Russia dropped to third for his fourth career World Cup podium. The race was moved from Zagreb, Croatia, because of a lack of snow. It was the first in a series of five slaloms within three weeks. This weekend, a giant slalom and a slalom will be contested in Adelboden, with further slaloms to follow in Wengen, Kitzbuehel and Schladming.
