ÖSV ski jumper Lisa Eder is showcasing strong early form this weekend.

The 25-year-old, who had initially announced her retirement in April but then backtracked in August to declare her comeback, is dominating the high-calibre competition at the Intercontinental Cup events in Stams.

Eder Dominates at Will

Already on Saturday, Eder was in a class of her own, winning her comeback competition with an incredible 24.4-point lead over Slovenia's Nika Vodan. On Sunday, she secured another victory on the normal hill in Stams.

This time the lead wasn't quite as large, but still considerable at 14.2 points. Vodan once again took second place. Nika Prevc, the dominant ski jumper of recent years, finished third, just as she did on Saturday.

Mühlbacher Secures Good Fifth Place

Julia Mühlbacher can be pleased with a good result. The 22-year-old ÖSV jumper finished fifth on Sunday, 32.7 points behind Eder.

Luise Tritscher finished 17th, Magdalena Dobler 21st, and Amy Dögl 28th.

Ski jumpers will have to wait a bit longer for the World Cup season to begin. The season kicks off in Lillehammer on November 20.
