Too many skiers are waiting too long before they announce their retirement, balancing dwindling victory gains with their continued, tenuous sponsorship and end up turning their careers into slow death preceded by a long and painful agony and spoiled image.
Ted Ligety is a case in point.
Sure, Hirscher, the big winner could afford leaving on a high note like Jean-Claude Killy did fifty years ago, because he values his overall brand or image over a few more bucks garnered here and there. Congrats, Marcel you’ve been the best from A to Z!
It takes guts to leave at the top of one’s glory, but hasn’t Marcel Hirscher been gutsy all along?
