Anna Hollandt misses medal at German championships in Garmisch

In Garmisch-Partenkirchen there was an exciting competition in the ski jumping scene, in which Anna Hollandt, one of the greatest hopes in German sport, missed a medal for hair width. The 27-year-old athlete returned without precious metal and placed fourth place in the individual competition in the ungrateful fourth place, which is particularly disappointing for her. After previous successes in recent years, including a gold medal in 2022 and a bronze in 2023, expectations were high.

In the team competition, Hollandt was on the side of the young Selina Kölle, who also jumps for SC Degenfeld. Together they took sixth place. Despite the opening of the two, the medal business was an unreachable goal. Hollandt's individual performances were strong, but it was not enough to secure their place on the podium.

competition course and results

in the individual competition Hollandt had a difficult start. Her first jump, with a length of 113.0 meters, was not enough to penetrate the upper ranks. In comparison, the new German champion, Katharina Schmid, showed a strong performance and jumped 123.0 meters in the first round. Also in the second round, Schmid reached two impressive jumps, the last one at 132.5 meters, which secured the title.

Hollandt improved to 122.5 meters in the second round, which increased its total number of points to 244.0 points. Unfortunately, she lacked almost six points on Juliane Seyfarth, who took third place and was rewarded with 250 points for her jumps. In the course of her career, Hollandt has won the title of the German champion three times, but no further one was added this year.

The ranking list in the individual competition was as follows:

• 1. Katharina Schmid - 290.5 points (jumps: 123.0 m, 132.5 m)
• 2. Selina Friday - 280.0 points (jumps: 120.0 m, 129.0 m)
• 3. Juliane Seyfarth - 250.0 points (jumps: 120.5 m, 122.0 m)
• 4. Anna Hollandt - 244.0 points (jumps: 113.0 m, 122.5 m)
• 5. Pia-Lilian Kübler-180.4 points (jumps: 116.5 m, 119.5 m)

for the team competition, Hollandt and Kölle came together, but due to the lack of experience of Kölle, the duo was unable to stink against the stronger teams. They achieved a total number of points that they thrown back to sixth place.

The view for Anna Hollandt

The competition was a certain disappointment for Anna Hollandt, who is one of the best known and most successful athletes in ski jumping. With their impressive career and a strong sporting background, this championship was an opportunity for them to prove their dominance again. A look back at the achievements of recent years shows that Hollandt always conjures up unpredictability in the competition that captivates the audience.

After she could still exist, it remains to be seen how Hollandt will present itself in the coming season and whether she gets the chance to build on her previous successes. The discipline of the world elite in ski jumping remains challenging and exciting. Interested parties can find more details on this topic in a comprehensive report read at www.schwaebische-post.de
