Austrians Dominate Final Competition

Fellow Austrians Jan Hoerl and Stefan Kraft completed the podium with 306.5 and 303.2 points, respectively. This marked Austria’s return to the top after a 10-year wait since Kraft’s last triumph in the 2014/15 season.
Poland’s Wąsek Impresses
Paweł Wąsek was the best-performing Pole, finishing eighth overall in the tournament. In Bischofshofen, he achieved jumps of 137.5 m and 139 m, scoring 294.1 points.
