World ski jumping champion Markus Eisenbichler saved the tired DSV eagles at the world cup at home in Titisee-Neustadt. The 29-year-old from Siegsdorf flew past the podium in fourth place, but showed increasing form just three days after the end of the disappointing Four Hills Tournament. The winner of the tour of Poland, Kamil Stoch, celebrated his third consecutive victory and underlined his exceptional position.

Eisenbichler improved from sixth place on the Hochfirstschanze in the Black Forest with 139.5 m in the second round, but was finally a good meter behind third place with 268.7 points. The 33-year-old Stoch achieved his 39th World Cup victory with a dream flight of 144.0 m in the final and 281.6 points, which equated him with compatriot Adam Malysz for third place on the “eternal” list of best .

Norway’s World Cup leader Halvor Egner Granerud (277.6) finished second and defended the lead in the general classification “Titisee-Neustadt 5”, whose leader received 25,000 euros after the second individual competition on Sunday (16.30 hours). Stoch’s compatriot Piotr Zyla (270.8) came in third, while Dawid Kubacki, also from Poland, who was in the lead after the first round, fell to seventh in the final.

The second of the tour Karl Geiger (Oberstdorf) failed to surpass 25th place with two mixed jumps at 129.5 and 121.5 m (224.2 points). The second best German was Martin Hamann (Aue), who finished 14th.

Pius Paschke (Kiefersfelden) improved from 30th to 17th with a strong second jump. Former world champion Severin Freund (Rastbüchl), winner of the 2015 World Cup in Titisee-Neustadt, came in 23rd The 18-year-old who jumped into the top 10 for the first time in eighth place had to be content with the 26th place.
