On Saturday, the local hero benefited from the severe fall of the half-time Norwegian Thea Minyan Björseth, who had wiped out Daniela Iraschko-Stolz’s ski jump record at 97 meters in the first heat. Björseth fell forward and overturned several times. She was still third behind Prevc and Selina Freitag (ger). Lisa Eder and Jacqueline Seifriedsberger finished fourth and five.
Painful injuries
With Eva Pinkelnig in eight, a third Austrian came into the top ten. Julia Mühlbacher and Chiara Kreuzer also scored points in places 16 and 20. With the smallest possible lead of 0.1 points ahead of Seifriedsberger, the podium or the overthrown Björseth lacked 2.6 points. The Norwegian, who had been the last in the competition, stayed on the run for a long time and then had to be transported to the hospital in Ljubljana. After the first diagnoses, the 21-year-old wore painful injuries to the left knee and left elbows.
