Prevc said afterwards: “It's a great feeling to win two competitions within 24 hours on the same hill. I already felt during the flight that it would be a long jump, but I didn't really realize it until I saw the numbers on the display. I'm not sad that the hill will be reconstructed, because now I'll forever be the record holder on this hill and next year I'll have the chance to set a new hill record. We will drive back to Slovenia today and do some physical training there. Next week we'll have national championships in Planica and then I'll spend a few days with my family over Christmas."

Hayboeck on the podium again

Hayboeck was second and achieved his second podium finish this season with jumps on 136.5 m and 135.5 m and 284.8 points. The Austrian said: "The second jump today was very good. Now I can go into the Christmas break with a positive feeling. The 4-Hills-Tournament is the first highlight of the season, but now I have to stop thinking about the first third of the season and spend a few calm days with my family."

With 135 m and 132 m and a total of 279.8 points, Gangnes finished on the podium already for the third time this winter. "I am really happy about my jumps today. I don’t understand why everybody is asking what we are doing differently, because we didn’t prepare in any different way. We have good coaches and a really good team, so we can really push each other. We will go back to Norway now, do some training and then spend some days with our families."

Forfang closely misses the podium

The fourth place went to his teammate Johann Andre Forfang, who jumped on 136 m and 131 m and scored 276.5 points. After this second place on Saturday, Domen Prevc achieved yet another very good result in fifth with 137 m and 128.5 m and 273.8 points. Overall World Cup winner Severin Freund lost his chances on a better result with two bad landings and finished sixth with 271.3 points. His teammate Richard Freitag, fourth after the first round, fell in the final, but with 263.4 points he still remained in the Top 10.

Kraft and Wellinger in the Top 10

Stefan Kraft, eighth with 261.3 points, and Andreas Wellinger, who was ninth only 0.5 points behind, underlined the ambitions of the Austrian and German athletes for the 4-Hills-Tournament. Noriaki Kasai, third on Saturday, finished tenth this time with 259.0 points. Positive for the Austrian team were also the performances of Manuel Fettner and Manuel Poppinger, who came in 11th and 12th. Roman Koudelka was the best Czech in 13th.

Ammann moves up

Simon Ammann moved up from 29th to 14th in the final round, Stephan Leyhe showed another solid performance and was 15th. The same applies for Ronan Lamy-Chappuis, who scored points again for France in 23rd. Things are not going so well for the Polish team right now. Kamil Stoch, Klemens Muranka and Maciej Kot were only 26th, 28th and 30th. World record holder Anders Fannemel, who won the qualification earlier today, was disqualified in the competition. It was not the first time for him this season.

Prevc wears "yellow" at the 4-Hills

Peter Prevc further extended his lead in the overall World Cup, with 564 points he is now already 165 points ahead of Severin Freund will definitely wear the yellow bib also in the New Year's competition in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Kenneth Gangnes follows in third with 370 points. Germany leads the Nation's Cup ahead of Norway and Slovenia.

After a short break over Christmas, the 4-Hills-Tournament will start with the qualification in Oberstdorf on December 28th.
