Austria's ski jumper in Sapporo: Kobayashi outstanding!
In the last World Cup jumping in front of the Nordic Ski World Cup in Sapporo, the victory again went to the Japanese sensational jumper Ryoyu Kobayashi. He amazed the competition with an excellent jump to 137 meters and a total point of 270.4 points. This is his 34th World Cup victory and its fourth Triumphal appearance in the Olympic city, which was host of the winter games in 1972, like Laola1 reported.
For the Austrian jumpers, however, it did not go as hoped. Daniel Tschofenig, the overall World Cup, reached fourth place with 254.1 points and thus became his team's most successful athlete. But the question quickly arises: Will the remaining opponents, including Stefan Kraft and Jan Hörl, still have the chance to catch up in the overall World Cup? The Norwegian Johann Andre Forfang, who was third on Sunday and is only 651 points behind Tschofenig, is one of the last remaining rivals, as SN With only six competitions until the end of the season, the time for a race against the clock is extremely limited to achieve the supposed golden object of the overall World Cup.
the Austrian competition
In retrospect, in retrospect of the event, Austria's team was broad, with four jumpers in the top seven - a gratifying team result. Maximilian Ortner, who completed a seventh place, and Manuel Fettner, who landed in eleventh place, could also contribute crucial points. When preparing for the upcoming world championships, Tschofenig is optimistic: "You don't want to be fourth, but the jumps are at a good level. It was not easy for us, but I think we fought our way back," he said.Stefan Kraft, who finished just behind Tschofenig and Hörl with a sixth place, sees himself as a challenger in the struggle of the overall World Cup and notes: "The two will make up. Mega-cool that we will bring the title to Austria twice in a row." The other competitions in March, including four events on a flight ski jump, promise exciting duels, while everyone is looking at the upcoming World Championships.
