Four Hills


One more post today.
Most people don't care of course, but the Four Hills tournament had the most amazing climax. Janne Ahonen won the Bischofshofen jump, 2 points ahead of Jakub Janda. And Janda had been 2 points ahad of Janna going into the final hill, 3 points ahead even going into the final jump!
It was great stuff, if only for a limited audience!
So the end result was, that the two of them shared the tournament victory, the first time that had happened in the 54 years of the Vier Schanzen Tournee. And Janne Ahonen, the greatest jumper of his generation, has now equalled the great Jens Weissflog as sole 4 time winners of the 4 Hills.
