The 7th round of the women's ski jumping World Cup was held in Austria on the 29th, and although Sara Takanashi was the top Japanese player, she did not perform well, placing 14th.
The 7th round of the Jump Women's World Cup was held on a normal hill with a hill size of 98 meters, which also serves as the 2nd round of the ``Silvester Tournament'' that competes in 4 games over the year-end and New Year holidays.
Continuing from the previous day, the first jump was a ``knockout method'' in which 50 people who had won the qualifying battle competed in a one-on-one match. Although he couldn't increase his distance, he beat the 17-year-old Romanian player he faced by more than 36 points and advanced to the second round.
Takanashi, who was ranked 17th in the first ranking, extended the distance to 91 meters from a smooth takeoff in the second time, even with an unfavorable tailwind, for a total of 229.3 points.
As a result, Takanashi moved up three spots to 14th, and although he was the top Japanese driver, he did not perform well.
Other Japanese drivers were Nozomi Maruyama in 16th, Yuki Ito in 17th, Yuka Seto in 22nd, and Rinko Miyajima in 30th.
Austrian Eva Pinkernich won the race, following on from the previous day.
