Norwegian double victory on the Bergisel

Robert Johansson, Daniel Andre Tande, Evgeniy Klimov

 

After two smooth competitions in Oberstdorf and Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the third leg of the 65th 4-Hills-Tournament in Innsbruck was turbulent. Constantly changing winds made the competition difficult for everyone involved and a certain amount of luck was definitely required in order to be successful. It took almost two hours to complete the first round and Norway's Daniel Andre Tande was the lucky and well-deserved winner. Tande's teammate Robert Johansson and Russia's Evgeniy Klimov came in second and third.

 

Norway's Robert Johansson was in the lead for quite some time. Under perfect conditions, the 26-year-old showed the longest jump of the day of 133 m (123.1 points). But then Tande jumped on 128.5 m and took the top spot after the first round with his total of 125.7 points.

 

Due to the difficult conditions and the lack of daylight, the jury then decided to cancel the final shortly after the first round was completed and so the results became official.

 

"This was a really tough day for the jury, the conditions were extremely difficult. I made the best out of my jump and of course I was also lucky with the conditions. On a day like today you can't win without the luck. I was hoping for a second round with equal conditions for all the jumpers, but Ski Jumping is an outdoor sport and so you have to live with what you get, you can't chose the conditions you want", Tande explained his point of view after the competition.

 

Kamil Stoch fights like a lion

 

Poland's Kamil Stoch was actually the "Man of the Day" in Innsbruck. Stoch fell after the landing in the trial round and had to compete despite problems with his left shoulder. But still the double Olympic Champion finished fourth in this competition - amazing.

 

Stoch lost the overall lead in the 4-Hills-Tournament to Tande, but thanks to his great fighting spirit he is now only 1.7 points behind the Norwegian. Whether he will be albe to fight for the overall title of the 65th 4-Hills-Tournament in the final event in Bischofshofen will now depend on how serious Stoch's injury is.

 

The athletes definitely needed some luck in today's competition. Some of the favorites of the overall ranking had to experience that today: Austria's Stefan Kraft had a bad day not only because of the wind conditions, he also suffered from a stomach flu. Kraft finished 18th and is now third in the overall ranking of the 4-Hills-Tournament. With a total of 693.7 points, Kraft is 16.7 points behind Tande and still has a chance. The Austrian will definitely not give up the fight for the overall title.

 

Also the currently best German jumper lost some ground today. Markus Eisenbichler had really bad conditions and came in only 29th with a jump of 112 m. In the overall ranking he is now sixth. "I would have wished that the jury would have waited a bit longer for the top four or five athletes. From my point of view it became clear pretty early that there wouldn't be a final round. The only alternative today would have been a cancellation. They couldn't have done a much better job, they made the best out of it. Andreas Wellinger and Stephan Leyhe are getting better and better and the hill in Bischofshofen should suit Markus Eisenbichler. I think that we will see a good performance of the German team in the final in Bischofshofen", German head coach Werner Schuster said after the competition.

 

The day in Innsbruck already started a bit odd. First the German Ski Association (DSV) announced that Severin Freund has returned home due to an influenza infection.  A little while later, it was announced that Austria's Michael Hayboeck, the opponent of Freund in the K.O. round, will not be able to compete due to a stomach flu. So there were only 24 instead of the usual 25 pairs in the first round and for the first time in the history of the 4-Hills-Tournament 6 lucky loser would have been qualified for the final - that didn't take place.

 

The 4-Hills-Tournament continues already tomorrow with the training and the qualification in Bischofshofen.

I was waiting for the moment when the pressure will squash Tande and it came. What a horrendous jump and as i expected, his caliber is not for a 4-Hills winner (at least not yet). The return of Kamil Stoch :clap: :cool: Awesome to see that the fall he had in Innsbruck didn't faze him.

YES! :clap: :champion: Now Kamil have almost everything! :clap: He is just second Polish jumper who won this, 16 years after Adam Małysz :clap:

 

Also first time ever two Polish jumpers are on podium at the same Four Hills Tournament with Żyła on second place :hyper: Also Kot could be third, but fourth place in total is also awesome for us and especially him! :clap:

 

Time to celebrate :toast:

    • 2028 Team Size Projection – Jan 2026 Update   Here’s an update to my 2028 Team Size Projection. While I touch upon major events changes may occur due to results in smaller events. Additionally, several sports released their qualification document so there may be cases where I have to update the projection. I will only include sports where there is an update.   Here is the link to the updated sheet.     Aquatics (Water Polo) The Men’s European Championships saw take gold. The victory moved Serbia up a few places between European nations. With that said, no one fell out of Olympic qualification with the likes of France and Romania still on the outside looking in. remains on the edge.   Athletics (Marathon) Both the Xiamen and Osaka marathons were held this month along with a few other smaller events. While there were a few changes in the rankings, in terms of Olympic projections gains an athlete in the men’s marathon at the expense of   Badminton Major tournaments include the Malaysia Open and India Open. New updates which affected projections include the women’s doubles where overtook . As Polina Buhrova is also scheduled to compete in the singles event, an additional spot has been open. Other changes in the women’s singles was loses one of their quotas. and benefit from those losses.   Indonesia’s loss on the women’s side is offset by gaining a second player in the men’s singles. This puts   on the outside.   Canoeing The qualification document for both Slalom and Sprint were released/updated. No significant changes were found in the Sprint update. Slalom had significant changes relative to 2024 where the initial quotas will be decided by rankings and kayak cross will now have significant quotas being allocated. After adjustment, the following nations lost a quota; Andorra, Chinese Taipei, Ireland, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Slovakia, and Sweden. The following nations gained a quota; Canada, China, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and Tunisia.   Cricket The Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier was held. No changes to the projection.   Equestrian (Dressage & Jumping) Various World Cup events were held. No changes to the projections were made.   Fencing We had two Grand Prix this month, one for epee and the other for sabre. In men’s epee, overtakes . On the women’s side, the United States moved into the top 4 in the team ranking, pushing Estonia down to fifth. This pushed out of Olympic qualification while takes the Americas quota. This caused a downstream effect on the individual side as Ukraine takes an individual quota and Canada relinquishes their quota, additionally, gained a quota while lost one.   In men’s sabre, now takes the Asian team quota pushing down to just an individual quota. No changes were found in women’s sabre.   Handball Four men’s continental championships were held this month. finished top in Africa while a couple of upsets were saw in South America and Asia where and won over and respectively. Despite their wins, they currently haven’t leapfrogged into being projected to qualify. We’ll see how they perform at the World Championships.   Europe saw finish fourth. This was enough to push it into Olympic qualification projection. They pushed out.   Rowing The qualification document was released. There was a change in boat allocation relative to 2024 and the continental qualifier was slightly different than what I projected. Additionally, I assumed coastal rowing would allow 2 men and 2 women to compete in its three events, but the max is 1 man and 1 woman. This has caused significant changes to the projections.   Overall, the United States lost four quotas. Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, and Spain lost two quotas and Algeria, Argentina, Croatia, Cuba, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Portugal, Tunisia lost one quota.   The following nations have gained two athletes; Japan, Morocco while the following nations gained one athlete; Angola, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Chinese Taipei, Cote d’Ivoire, Denmark, Estonia, Kuwait, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Philippines, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Togo, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu   Rugby Sevens Fixing a couple of mistakes. First on the men, actually has the Asian quota over and in the women as is essentially shutting down the program, I think it is only right to remove them until they decide to compete again. This means is also projected to qualify.   As for new updates, we saw the third tier SVNS compete, which brought no new updates and the Singapore SVNS. I also didn’t add the Dubai or Cape Town SVNS in my calculations. For both, while there was some shuffling no one ultimately fell out.   Shooting The Asian Shotgun Championships were held this month. A few top shooters were missing. The only change to the projection is is set to qualify in women’s trap, pushing out   Squash The Tournament of Champions was held this month. Additionally, the qualification document was released. There was some restriction as to how many nations can send two players and this sport will offer universality quotas.   The following nations lost an athlete quota; Colombia, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and New Zealand. The following nations gained an athlete quota; Canada, Pakistan, Spain (x2), Switzerland, Ukraine   Triathlon The qualification document was released. There are a few changes relative to 2024. Projection changes include: Losses to Hong Kong and Slovenia and gains for Austria and China.   Weightlifting The qualification document was released. One change to be made was the reallocation process for host nation quotas. Due to this, El Salvador Iraq, Palau, Sri Lanka, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu lost quotas while Australia, China, Dominican Republic, Iran, and Samoa (x2) gained quotas.   Wrestling The qualification document was released. There were some significant changes to the qualification process including using the world rankings and the final qualifier only consisting of non-qualified nations. The projection changes are as follows; losses to Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Russia, South Korea, Sweden, and Turkey.   Belgium and Lithuania gained 2 quotas while American Samoa, Austria, Estonia, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Latvia, Madagascar, Spain, and Turkmenistan gained 1 quota.
    • Looks like we in the Philippines are in the same situation. No news yet on whether we’ll be able to watch the Games 
    • Cricket is any day in a better position than Baseball, Modern Pentathlon or Rowing 8s globally
    • http://i.imgur.com/gLJZbix.jpg   Honestly football is just on another level. For other sports, an expanded field or creating multiple host cities likely only works with baseball, cricket and maybe basketball, and only in very specific countries.
    • No streaming for the games in India. I contacted IOC they just sent me a list where the games will be shown live.    Last games we had the Olympic channel and YouTube showing the live coverage for regions with no media rights. This time sadly no such schedule.   So much about making the games accessible to all...
    • What revealed those files of Epstein !!!! thousands of scandals , horrible diguisting things mixing politic criminalities , robbery , scam , manipulation...etc    all those celebrities of shht that you love   
    • I wonder if instead of having flexibility around what sport to add there should be one or two team sports per game with an expanded field (of 16 or 32 or w/e) where the host gets to pick which which team sports (if any) has an expanded field.
    • Dunno if this is geoblocked, but this is from our weekly comedy show Saturday Night Live  
    • I don't buy that she's doing this just to start the race if she thinks she won't be competitive.  We'll probably know more after the training run and far be it from me to know how that's going to work with a torn ACL, but if she knows she can't do it, she'll give that spot to another skier
    • And this with relatively small fields, so lots of nations with no skin in the game.
