Halvor Egner Granerud (24) continues the big jump. Tonight there was a victory at the World Cup in Russia. And now he’s finally making money again, after a year of zero.
The Jumping World Cup is two shots right now. A German and a Norwegian. Markus Eisenbichler and Halvor Egner Granerud. There was a new duel between them in Nizhny Tagil. But Eisenbichler landed with the ball in the final. He not only lost the victory. Egner Granerud also took over the lead in the World Cup. In Sunday’s race, he is the one who jumps in yellow.
However, he had laid the foundations with 136.5 meters compared to 132.5 for Granerud. And a clear advantage with 11.1 points after the first half.
But Eisenbichler burst into the wind, when he jumped a staggering 80 meters, and finished in 28th place. Egner Granerud delivered 132 meters. Another steady jump. He was 14.3 points ahead of Daniel Huber of Austria.
The battle for victory was also over Robert Johansson. It didn’t look like this after the first round. But the man with the elegant red beard struck with a dreamy jump in the final round. It was a hill record of 142.5 meters. There was the almost flat field where he landed. The Lillehammer jumper still managed to hit. But at just 120.5 meters in the first round, and a disappointing 25th place, he moved up to a sensational third place.

Granerud shed tears when he won his first World Cup in his career at Ruka on Sunday. Now there is more to enjoy than a good jump. He finally makes a living. Asker mares haven’t done it for a long time. During last year’s failed season, where he never qualified for the World Cup, there was no income. He lived on savings and funds from private sponsors. Now win. And earn well.
Over the course of two weeks, it has raised 260,000 crowns.

– It was almost zero, but it had some income from sponsors. But in the two seasons before last year’s recession, I won some prize money. I’ve been good at saving, but when I was at the grocery store, I had to use money from the savings account, says Halvor Egner Granerud.
He says he was not stressed about finances. Although the savings account decreased. But, without a doubt, it is much better to consult online banking these days. In two weeks he has two first places and two fourth places.
Daniel-André Tande finished in 18th place. Sander Vossan Eriksen was number 19, Johann André Forfang was number 20 and Marius Lindvik finished in 26th place.
