The wirtschaftsblatt says: hermann maier is now in range with tiger woods, michael schumacher, michael jordan and these guys - regarding his international position as testimonial.

it seems that they are damn right! although the US and the rest of the world pays very little attention to alpine skiing everybody is excited about the unbelievable comeback of hermann maier at the Super G in kitzbuhel.

article in USA TODAY, another one in the NY TIMES (at the bottom, unfortunately, pay-per-view), the well known London Times, even the FAZ, as well as the neue Zuericher Zeitung, or even the Sueddeutsche,....

and surely many, many more!
