Austria celebrates historical triple victory on four hill tour!

Bischofshofen, Österreich - A spectacular finale of the four -hill tour caused excitement among ski jumping fans on January 6, 2025 in Bischofshofen. Daniel Tschofenig secured the overall victory with a breathtaking comeback and crowned the champion of the tour with his third day victory. The 22-year-old jumped sensationally from third to one and overtook his teammates Jan Hörl and the disappointed Stefan Kraft, who took third place. In this dramatic final, Tschofenig clearly prevailed against the competition and described his victory as overwhelming: "Madness! I can't believe that I won," said the jubilee. As N-tv reported .

Andreas Widhölzl makes history

The success of Tschofenig makes the performance of coach Andreas Widhölzl even more remarkable. He became the first trainer to win the four -hill tour both as a athlete and as head coach. Widhölzl, who received the golden eagle himself 25 years ago, praised his team and was happy about the terrific performance of his protégés. "We enjoy it. This is an exceptional situation," said the Tyrolean. With a total of eleven podium places of twelve possible at the tour, the domestic ski jumper dominated and showed their impressive form, as well as The Heut.at reported .

The event was described as a "brutal thriller", which illustrates the tension until the last jump. The German jumping team was once again under pressure. For strength it was a hard blow after he ranked on the diving tower due to unfavorable conditions and an hour -long waiting waiting, while his competition cheered in the end. The German jumpers missed the podium again and now have to wait for their overall victory until the next tour in 2026. This leads to a sharp criticism of the situation of the team, which now has to deal with severe setbacks after a promising start of the season.
