"Exciting winter"
Hirscher comeback: Shiffrin can hardly wait
Mikaela Shiffrin can hardly wait. The US ski superstar is longing for Marcel Hirscher's comeback: "It's going to be an exciting winter!"
Shiffrin is currently in Paris, where she is enthusiastically following the events at the Olympic Games. The 29-year-old was asked by ORF reporter Lukas Schweighofer about the imminent return of eight-time overall World Cup winner Marcel Hirscher. "He's one of my favorite skiers of all time," enthused "Mika". "So I'm really looking forward to it!"
Hirscher sets off for New Zealand
Hirscher is flying to New Zealand today. He is hoping for good testing and training conditions there. "I first have to see how I feel when I'm skiing. Because it's like this: I haven't skied a real racing turn for five years," Hirscher had said recently in an interview with the "Krone".
Hirscher will be competing for the Netherlands at the World Cup opener in Sölden on October 27, as he met all the requirements to receive a wild card.
