Just before inauguracyjnymi World Cup in Germany Klingenthal Stoch injured. Conservative treatment has not produced results, injury to renew before the first training session, and it was necessary operation. This year’s double Olympic champion and winner of the Sochi Crystal Ball underwent surgery on 4 December. Last week spent on intensive, as he pointed out, “the camp” rehabilitation and training in a sanatorium in Busko Zdroj.
The effects of this stay was so good that on Christmas Eve, “Rocket with Zab” appeared on the hill in Wisła Malinka, to take the first month break after training. Stoch after it announced on the social networking site: “I am going to the Four Hills Tournament”, defining it as a Christmas gift. Still, no one not officially confirmed that occurs in the first competition.
On Tuesday the team coach Lukasz Kruczek announced the names of five athletes who will represent Poland in the traditional party turn of the year. It Piotr Zyla, Dawid Kubacki, Jan Ziobro, Clement Muranka and Alexander Zniszczol. Sixth place in the team was left vacant. As it turned out, waiting for Stoch, who three previous editions of TCS finished in the top “10″. Succession was eighth, fourth and seventh, but a year ago he was considered the main favorite.
To Stoch could fight in Oberstdorf on Sunday for the first World Cup points of the season, has to take part in Saturday’s qualifying, just like other white -czerwoni who recently presented a high form. After nine contests cup best of them is Peter vein, which with the acquis 104 points occupies the 20th place. Norwegian Anders Fannemel leader has amassed 472 points, only two less has the second Roman Koudelka.
The Czech Republic and the beginning of the season jumps very well, had already won three competitions: Klingenthal, Lillehammer and Engelberg, and it can be seen as one of the candidates for the final success. The last skier of the country on top of the podium in 2006 was Jakub Janda, but he had to share the victory with Finn Janne Ahonen, the trophy five times, the most successful participant in TCS, which runs this year, but at the start.
Bookmakers highly appreciate a chance Austrian Michael Hayboeck, an experienced Swiss Simon Ammann and German Severin Freund. Your “two cents” can throw Austrian Gregor Schlierenzauer, twice winner of the event. It is one of seven players who this season won the World Cup competitions, but showing large fluctuations disposal. Very interesting is the fact that among the top candidates is not mentioned Fannemel leading World Cup, as well as the unexpected winner of the last edition of the Austrian Thomas Diethart.
favorite did not want to specify a Stoch, when it was not yet known whether the start. In an interview published on the official website of the International Ski Federation (FIS) said that all the athletes who are in the top ten TCS can win the World Cup.
“Gregor Schlierenzauer has the most experience, because he won many competitions. But Severin Freund it is now in great shape. Peter Prevc also is among the candidates to victory, and besides, you should never forget about Noriaki Kasaim. It is always possible that there would be some new name, and will be great “- rated Stoch.
The only Polish winner of the 2000/01 season is Adam. Two years later, he won the third place, four times placed the fourth place.
Usually in TCS triumphed players from Germany and Finland – 16 times and Austria – 15. The latter, however, did not descend from the podium of the highest degree 2009 years.
Oberstdorf jumpers move to another German town – Garmisch-Partenkirchen, where competition is traditionally held on New Year’s, and then to Austria – January 4 will host competitions in Innsbruck, and two days later the arena will jump in Bischofshofen.
Since the 1979-1980 season, TCS, called the Grand Slam skiing or cycling equivalent of the Tour de France is one of the classification of the World Cup.
Eight years ago, there has been a change in the system playing competitions. A system of KO based on the fact that on the basis of the results of qualification 25 pairs are created (by the key: 1. The 50th, 49th second, etc) of the first series of dotted. Will advance to the finals, and each winner a pair of five “lucky losers”, ie the best players from the losers.
