After snowboarder Benjamin Karl caused a stir with his criticism of darts, ski legend Hansi Hinterseer is now firing against Mensur Suljovic and Co. However, he is not interested in whether darts is a sport or not, but rather in the payment of players compared to skiers.

“What bothers me is that people think the skiers deserve so much. I’m not talking about a deer. But take one that’s gonna be tenth. Such people earn almost nothing, sometimes they have to pay for the training themselves,”Hinterseer explains in the Krone.

Above all, the relationship between risk and payment in comparison with other sports is a thorn in the side of the 63-year-old’s side “The skiers are risking their heads and collars especially on the downhill run in Kitzbühel. Every footballer, golfer or even darts player gets more.”
