# FIS Alpine Ski World Cup records and statistics
The [FIS Alpine Ski World Cup](https://www.edgepedia.org/fis-alpine-ski-world-cup) is an annual circuit of alpine skiing races, run by the [International Ski and Snowboard Federation](https://www.edgepedia.org/international-ski-and-snowboard-federation) (FIS) since 1966/67, in which skiers score points race by race and the season leaders win crystal globe trophies. This article covers the points system, the all-time points benchmarks, and the record holders for men and women. The modern circuit rewards specialists as much as all-rounders: [Marco Odermatt](https://www.edgepedia.org/marco-odermatt) won the 2025-26 men's overall title while scoring zero points in slalom, taking the globe entirely on the strength of the speed and giant slalom events.[1](https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/alpine-skiing/cup-standings.html?cupcode=WC&disciplinecode=ALL&gendercode=M&nationcode=&seasoncode=2026§orcode=AL)
| Key fact | Detail |
|---|---|
| Men's overall globe record | Marcel Hirscher, 8 titles, last won in 2019[2](https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/general/statistics.html?sectorcode=AL&standingstype=multi-cup-trophies&statistictype=standings) |
| Women's overall titles | Mikaela Shiffrin 6 (through 2026), Lindsey Vonn 4, per FIS's trophy list[2](https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/general/statistics.html?sectorcode=AL&standingstype=multi-cup-trophies&statistictype=standings) |
| Current men's champion | Odermatt, 1,626 points in 2025-26, plus downhill and super-G globes[1](https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/alpine-skiing/cup-standings.html?cupcode=WC&disciplinecode=ALL&gendercode=M&nationcode=&seasoncode=2026§orcode=AL) |
| Points scale | A race win has been worth 100 points since 1991/92; before 1986/87 only best results counted[3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php) |
## History of the points system and cross-era caveats
The overall standings have been compiled under different rules in different eras, and that limits direct comparison of raw totals. From 1966/67 to 1986/87, only a skier's best results were counted toward the overall standings. From 1991/92 onward, a race winner receives 100 points, the scale still in use today.[3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php) The statistics database ski-db recalculates historical seasons under the original 25-20-15-11-8-6-4-3-2-1 scale precisely so that seasons from different rule sets can be compared on one footing.[3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php)
Race count is the second caveat. The 2015/16 men's season had 44 races, versus roughly 32 to 40 in most other seasons, so raw point totals are not directly comparable without normalizing for the number of starts.[3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php) [Hermann Maier](https://www.edgepedia.org/hermann-maier)'s 1999-2000 total of 2,000 points, built from 10 wins in 40 races, remains among the highest single-season totals on the 100-point win scale.[3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php)
## By the numbers: overall champions and scoring benchmarks
Recent men's overall winners and their point totals trace how dominant a season can be. [Aleksander Aamodt Kilde](https://www.edgepedia.org/aleksander-aamodt-kilde) won 2019/20 with 1,202 points and [Alexis Pinturault](https://www.edgepedia.org/alexis-pinturault) won 2020/21 with 1,260, both lower totals than the winners before and after them.[3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php) [Marcel Hirscher](https://www.edgepedia.org/marcel-hirscher)'s peak season, 2015/16, produced 1,795 points across the 44-race calendar.[3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php)
Odermatt's five consecutive titles show a controlled decline in totals rather than a drop in dominance: 1,639 in 2021/22, 2,042 in 2022/23, 1,947 in 2023/24, 1,721 in 2024/25, and 1,626 in 2025/26.[3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php) In the 2025/26 season, aged 28 years and 6 days at the title's confirmation, he compiled 9 wins, 14 top-3 finishes, and 22 top-10s in 36 races.[3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php)
## Crystal globe records and title winners
The overall globe record on the men's side belongs to Marcel Hirscher, whose 8 titles, the last won in 2019, top FIS's official multi-trophy list.[2](https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/general/statistics.html?sectorcode=AL&standingstype=multi-cup-trophies&statistictype=standings) ski-db records Hirscher's run as eight consecutive overall titles from 2011/12 to 2018/19, matching FIS's count of eight in total.[3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php) Behind Hirscher on FIS's list are Odermatt and Marc Girardelli with 5 men's overall titles each, followed by [Ingemar Stenmark](https://www.edgepedia.org/ingemar-stenmark) with 3, the last in 1978.[2](https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/general/statistics.html?sectorcode=AL&standingstype=multi-cup-trophies&statistictype=standings)
On the women's side, FIS's official trophy list records [Mikaela Shiffrin](https://www.edgepedia.org/mikaela-shiffrin) with 6 overall titles through the 2026 season, [Lindsey Vonn](https://www.edgepedia.org/lindsey-vonn) with 4, the last in 2012.[2](https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/general/statistics.html?sectorcode=AL&standingstype=multi-cup-trophies&statistictype=standings)
## Recent developments
Nearly all of the active records in this article have moved since November 2023. Odermatt's overall haul grew from titles through 2022/23 to five straight globes spanning 2021/22 to 2025/26, adding downhill and super-G globes in 2025-26 alongside the overall crown; that season also saw him finish second in giant slalom with 495 points.[1](https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/alpine-skiing/cup-standings.html?cupcode=WC&disciplinecode=ALL&gendercode=M&nationcode=&seasoncode=2026§orcode=AL) • [3](https://ski-db.com/db/stats/overall_m_gc.php) His five titles moved him alongside Girardelli on FIS's all-time list.[2](https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/general/statistics.html?sectorcode=AL&standingstype=multi-cup-trophies&statistictype=standings)
