Brutal diagnosis after the Ski Jumping World Cup in Wisła! "The world is leaving us behind"

— One Swiss skier scored more points than our entire team — admitted Jakub Kot on Eurosport, comparing the total score of our jumpers in Wisła with that of second-place Gregor Deschwanden. — The world is leaving us behind — added the ski jumping expert with bitterness in his voice.

The winner of Saturday's competition was Daniel Tschofenig, marking his first victory in World Cup events. Second place went to Gregor Deschwanden, who could add 80 points to his overall classification.

How many points did our representatives earn in total for their performances in Wisła?

  • Paweł Wąsek — 11th place (24 points)
  • Aleksander Zniszczoł — 16th place (15 points)
  • Dawid Kubacki — 25th place (6 points)
  • Jakub Wolny — 26th place (5 points)

The world is moving ahead, and we are falling behind compared to others.

— One Swiss skier scored more points than our whole team. We can find more such snippets, but that’s not the point. The world has left us behind, and now the question arises: is this our place in the pecking order, which we have to accept now that we will not be standing on the podium in the near future? Or will something click again, and we will return to the forefront? For now, it’s not that easy — pointed out Eurosport expert Jakub Kot after the World Cup competition in Wisła.

Poland did not impress on their home hill.

Let's recall that once again, the Polish athletes were unable to mix it among the top spots. During the ski jumping competition in Wisła, we could see four representatives from Poland in the second series, with Paweł Wąsek ultimately being the best performer, the current leader of our team. However, he was unable to make it into the top ten, finishing the competition in 11th place.
