Gold for the Austrian women s team
The Austrian women are team World Champion 2021. In an extremely exciting competition, Daniela Iraschko-Stolz, Sophie Sorschag, Chiara Hoelzl, and Sara Kramer finished ahead of the teams of Slovenia and Norway on Friday evening.
The entire Austrian team will probably never forget this evening. In a dramatic nail-biter, they claimed team gold today. In Predazzo 2013, the Austrian men took the title, now the women provided the big success.
In the end, the athlete, who came in fourth yesterday, made the difference in this competition. With jumps of 102.5 m and 104 m (269.8 points), Sara Kramer showed the outstanding performance of the day and secured the World Championship title for the Austrians. With 959.3 points, the Austrian team came in only 1.4 points ahead of the Slovenians, Nika Kriznar, Spela Rogelj, Ursa Bogataj, and Ema Klinec.
