Alexis won his fourth GS in a row today at Kranska Gora. He has always been a joy to watch when he skies well. Consistency has been his real issue but for the past 6 weeks he has essentially been unbeatable in GS. They have another one tomorrow on the same hill and then again at the WC finals in 2 weeks. If he wins both (have to think that will be hard to do even as well as he is skiing) he has a shot to win the GS globe this year.
Hirscher looks tired and he is older the Pinreault. He is still among the most gracious sportsman of any era. He said this today about Pinterault:
“If Alexis is skiing as he showed us in the last couple of races, he will win the GS globe,” he added. “That is for sure because at the moment, he is amazing.”
