  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!
