Domen Prevc is the new ski jumping world champion from the Großchanze. The Slovenian prevailed in Trondheim in front of Norwegian Marius Lindvik and Jan Hörl from Austria. Previously, his sister Nika Prevc had won gold from the big and small ski jump. Philipp Raimund landed in seventh place as the best German, Andreas Wellinger followed tenth place.
During the first round, Austria, Slovenia and Poland protest against the evaluation of all Norwegian starters. The hosts are suspected of having changed their suits after the official chip. The protest was rejected.
Prevc surprises the favorites
Karl Geiger had to be satisfied with the 23rd rank in the last World Cup competition, the five-time winner Pius Paschke only came to 30th place in the individual from the normal hill.
Wellinger’s silver from the normal hill remained the only medal of the DSV men in Norway. “Unfortunately, we have to be satisfied with a medal. Of course we expected more,” said national coach Stefan Horngacher in the ARD.
The women had won silver twice through Selina Friday and bronze with the team.
