The Austrian ski jumper won an impressive victory in the first World Cup team competition of the season in Zakopane. Jan Hörl, Maximilian Ortner, Stefan Kraft and Daniel Tschofenig triumphed with a clear lead of 40.8 points before Slovenia, while Norway took third place. The red-white-red team continued their impressive run and already celebrated the seventh ÖSV World Cup victory in series. This dominance in ski jumping has shown itself continuously since December 21, and the athletes have left their competitors throughout, according to Diepresse.com.

In the individual competition of the normal hill, Marius Lindvik from Norway raised the bar and secured the gold medal with a score of 265.5. Andreas Wellinger from Germany followed closely behind in second place with 263.2 points, while Jan Hörl won third place for Austria and bronze with 256.3 points. He completed jumps of 107.0 and 102.0 meters. Ex-world champion Stefan Kraft came in sixth, while the World Cup leader Daniel Tschofenig only took the 21st place, as reported by Vol.at.

Another successful day for the ÖSV jumpers

The extraordinary performance by Hörl and the team newcomer Ortner in Zakopane was particularly remarkable and brought the Austrian colors another shiny award. Despite certain difficulties in strength and Tschofenig, the team remained superior. The upcoming individual competition on Sunday promises to be just as exciting. Tschofenig, the winner of the four -hill tour, has already qualified and will be motivated to get into the race to continue the Austrian success.
