Hirscher chalks up 26th win 

ARE, Sweden>> Marcel Hirscher won Sunday’s World Cup slalom to add to his crushing victory in Friday’s giant slalom, mastering the conditions on the rock-hard Olympia course to perfection and moving to the top of the overall rankings. 

He overcame a first-leg deficit of 0.25 seconds to edge German skier Felix Neureuther by 0.10 for his 26th career victory — moving him level with Austrian great Franz Klammer.

The two races were initially scheduled to take place in Val d’Isere, France — where Hirscher has won two GS races before — but were moved to freezing northern Sweden due to a lack of snow in the French Alps.
