Ryoyu Kobayashi leads after the first round of the Olympic competition on the large hill (HS 140) in Zhangjiakou. Kamil Stoch is fourth and remains in the fight for medals at the Olympic Games in Beijing. Four Polish jumpers advanced to the second round of the competition.
After the fantastic performance of Poland in the Olympic Games in Beijing on the normal hill, where Dawid Kubacki reached for the bronze medal, the fans of the White-Red team were eagerly awaiting the performance on the larger hill.
They did not impress in training and qualification, but it seemed a bit unreasonable to cross out champions like Kamil Stoch before the competition.
Kamil Stoch is fourth, but the podium is within his reach! Only 0.4 points away from the Olympic medal! The Final starts at 1:07 pm!
