The new leader is the Japanese Ryoyu Kobayashi, who jumped to second place on the day and is now around 2.5 meters ahead of Wellinger after three of four competitions. In all likelihood, the two will fight for the golden eagle for the tour champion between themselves.
Wellinger therefore has a great chance of becoming the first German tour winner since Sven Hannawald in 2002. Local hero Jan Hörl secured victory at the first Austrian station.
Behind Wellinger, Stephan Leyhe from the German team also jumped into the top 30 jumpers in 18th place, Philipp Raimund in 20th place and Karl Geiger in 26th place. Pius Paschke, on the other hand, was surprisingly eliminated after the first round.
