Reply to comment by LeBonLapin in Mikaela Shiffrin gets her record 86th World Cup victory by Jokobib

“world cup victory”, which is per race. This would be analogous to how many matches a country has won in FIFA World Cup.

“world cup title” is per category per year. (she has 15 world cup titles).

More like nr of games won in Premier league / La liga etc since it's a "series" over the whole season without playoffs like in the FIFA World Cup. With a big difference ofcourse. A game is only between two teems so your chances of winning is a lot higher than when competing against 100 other ski racers...
