World Cup 2025/26: Zakopane

 


After a disastrous showing at the Four Hills Tournament, the German ski jumper Andreas Wellinger is ready to compete in the event in Zakopane, Poland. On Saturday, Andreas qualified 34th in the qualification, jumping 120.5 m and scoring 103.3 points. Finally, on Sunday, in the 1st Round, he placed 16th, jumping 128.0 m and scoring 110.9 points, the same score as his teammate Pius Paschke, and enough to qualify for the Final Round. In the Final Round, he placed 22nd, jumping 122.5 m, scoring 102.0 points, for a total score of 212.9 points. It was a weekend to forget for Andreas Wellinger. Unlike at the Four Hills Tournament, he managed to qualify for the Final Round, but he's still having trouble with his jumps, which are still below expectations, and this is impacting his results. He'll have to work on fixing it. 

Until next time!

  The first of four events in the Four Hills Tournament, in which the German ski jumper Andreas Wellinger is ready to take part in his home event, the one in Oberstdorf, Germany. On Sunday, Andreas qualified 39th in the qualification, jumping 117.0 m and scoring 102.4 points. Finally, on Monday, in the 1st Round he challenged his teammate Felix Hoffmann in a k.o., losing the challenge, he ranked 48th, jumping 110.5 m and with a score of 102.5 points, and therefore was not fished out in the Lucky Loser to qualify for the Final Round. Andreas Wellinger returned with the same problems as before: disastrous jumps and disappointing results. Not a great start to the Four Hills Tournament. There's a lot of work to do.  Until next time!
