Marcel Hirscher: 'Unbelievable,' says skier as he reflects on dominance of the sport


(CNN) There's just no stopping "Champion of Champions" Marcel Hirscher. The Austrian skier won his eighth and ninth World Cup races of the season on the Chuenisbärgli in Adelboden over the weekend to push his overall tally to 67 victories on the circuit. On Saturday, Hirscher beat Henrik Kristoffersen and Thomas Fanara in the two-run giant slalom in Switzerland. The 29-year-old Hirscher came from behind after Norwegian Kristoffersen led following the first run. In heavy snow on Sunday, Hirscher repeated the trick in the slalom, edging out Clément Noel and Kristoffersen as the Austrian took his 16th podium in Adelboden, a record for male skiers.
