COC-L: Victory for Seifriedsberger
Jacqueline Seifriedsberger won the first Continental Cup competition in Oberwiesenthal (GER). She celebrated her fourth victory in the COC in her first competition this summer.
The Austrian was only seventh after the first round with a jump on 93 m and then captured the victory with 99.5 m in final (231.5 points). "I'm more than happy that I could repeat the first place from last year. I did not expect that, although I travelled to Oberwiesenthal with a good feeling", said Seifriedsberger.
In a very close competition, the second place went to French Lea Lemare (97.5 m and 95 m), only 1.5 points behind the winner. For the 15-year-old, this was by far the result in her career. "I was disappointed with my performance in training, but not with my jumps in the competition."
In her first appearance since the World Championships in Oslo Daniela Iraschko was in the lead after the first round with the longest jump of the day on 101 m. At the end the World Champion came in third with 229.5 points.
With Julia Clair, a teammate of Lemare finished fourth, Coline Mattel completed the strong result of the French team as sixth, behind Slovene Ema Klinec.
Japanese Sara Takanachi could move up from 19th to the eighth place, shared with Katja Pozun (SLO), with a jump on 97 m in the second round.
It was a disappointing home competition for the German jumpers. Best of the team was Juliane Seyfarth as 20th.
