season win

'Saisonsieg' (season win) is a compound word made up of 'Saison' (season), the linking s, and 'Sieg' (victory/win). So it literally means a win within a season.
Der Tennisspieler hofft auf seinen ersten Saisonsieg beim nächsten Turnier.
The tennis player is hoping for his first season win at the next tournament.
This word is used almost exclusively in sports journalism and in conversations about sports. So the context is always a competition that runs over a longer period of time.
Nach einer langen Niederlagenserie gelang dem Team endlich der ersehnte Saisonsieg.
After a long series of defeats, the team finally managed the long-awaited season win.
'Saisonsieg' (season win) is often combined with ordinal numbers to indicate which win it is. Typical verbs are 'feiern' (to celebrate), 'erringen' (to achieve/win), or 'holen' (to get/claim).
Die Mannschaft konnte am Wochenende ihren fünften Saisonsieg feiern.

success
'der Erfolg' and 'der Saisonsieg' are close in meaning when it comes to sports. A success is any positive result, for example a good game, a passed exam, or a successful project. A 'Saisonsieg' is much more specific: it is a win within a particular sports season. So 'Saisonsieg' is used only for athletes or teams, and only when you mean a single win in that season.
