She topped the standings after the opening round by achieving a score of 134.9, with Lundby second on 131.8.

Hölzl ensured victory with the 22-year-old leaping 141.5 metres with her second jump, giving her a score of 150.

An overall total of 284.9 points gave the Austrian ski jumper a comfortable victory.
