Andreas Wellinger Aims for Victory in Upcoming Ski Jumping Season

Wellinger, backed by strong performances and high expectations, targets the Vierschanzentournee win as the World Cup kicks off in Lillehammer.

Wellinger, Germany's top ski jumper, is focused on winning the prestigious Vierschanzentournee, a feat no German has achieved since Sven Hannawald in 2002.
Despite facing back issues during summer training, Wellinger showed promising results by winning the national title and performing well in international competitions.
The ski jumping season opens with a mixed-team event in Lillehammer, where Wellinger will compete alongside six other German athletes.
New rules this season emphasize the technical execution of landings, adding an element of uncertainty to the competition.
Experts, including former champion Martin Schmitt, believe Wellinger is in his prime and poised for success in the World Cup and upcoming World Championships.
