Big leap for 18‑year‑old Kacper Tomasiak: how the Ski Jumping World Cup overall standings look now

An 18‑year‑old Polish ski jumper, Kacper Tomasiak, battled for the podium in Sunday’s World Cup event in Engelberg and ultimately finished fifth, equaling his career best. That result propelled him up the overall World Cup standings: he climbs from 16th (157 pts) to 13th with 202 points, just 95 shy of 10th place.

Among the other Poles, Kamil Stoch remains 23rd on 110 points. Piotr Żyła stays 25th with 96 points after missing the second round on Sunday. Dawid Kubacki drops from 35th to 36th with 31 points. Maciej Kot, 27th in Sunday’s event, moves past Rok Oblak but sits 37th overall with 28 points. Paweł Wąsek’s strong 13th place in Engelberg lifts him to 33rd on 43 points, ahead of Kot and Kubacki.

Engelberg served as the final stop before the Four Hills Tournament. Qualifying in Oberstdorf is scheduled for Sunday at 16:30, with the first competition on Monday at the same time.
