Rout at the top of the Ski Jumping World Cup prize list — and how the Poles compare. An 18‑year‑old cashes in

A mid‑season financial table for the 2025/26 Ski Jumping World Cup shows a clear leader: Slovenia’s Domen Prevc. He is the only jumper to have already earned more than €100,000 this season, totaling €108,275 (approximately PLN 457,000). Japan’s Ryoyu Kobayashi sits second with €83,075—over €25,000 behind Prevc—while fellow Slovenian Anže Lanišek is third with €64,800.

Germany’s Philipp Raimund is fourth on €62,175, and Japan’s Ren Nikaido is fifth with €59,800. Further down the top ten are Austria’s Daniel Tschofenig (€52,550), Stefan Kraft (€51,600), Jan Hoerl (€42,675), Stephan Embacher (€42,100), and Germany’s Felix Hoffmann (€37,500).

From a Polish perspective, the top earner to date is 18‑year‑old Kacper Tomasiak, who has amassed €19,850 (about PLN 83,800). Notably, he missed the second round in Sunday’s competition, so his total did not increase there. Behind him are Kamil Stoch with €13,225 (21st on the list), Piotr Żyła with €11,250 (24th), Dawid Kubacki with €5,100 (34th), Paweł Wąsek with €3,850 (36th), and Maciej Kot with €3,400 (39th).

The next World Cup event takes place in Engelberg next weekend and will serve as the final test before the traditional Four Hills Tournament over late December and early January.
