Dawid Kubacki (830,7 points/Poland) The 29-year-old blonde is at the top and that's not the only reason why he's the top favorite: Kubacki is extremely consistent and has jumped onto the podium in all three competitions so far.

He came third in Oberstdorf and Garmisch-Partenkirchen, and took second place in the crazy wind jump in Innsbruck. “I concentrate on my jumps, not on the opponents,” announced the Pole after the qualification, which he finished in 13th place. Marius Lindvik (821,6 points/Norway) With 21 years and the experience of zero competition jumps in Bischofshofen, debutant Lindvik tackled the task in Pongau. The qualifying day was at best solid for the Garmisch and Innsbruck winner. Marius Lindvik is the surprise man: no one had expected him before the tour. © APA/afp / CHRISTOF STACHE

The German triple world champion Markus Eisenbichler doesn't think the youngster is a candidate for overall victory: “I don't really trust him to do that yet. If he is on top and leads in the second round, it will be a different feeling. He’s still very young and the others are a bit more experienced.” Karl Geiger (817,4 points/Germany) He has the least to say about the quartet of contenders. Geiger had a rather weak qualifying day and seems to have problems on the large facility in Bischofshofen. Good start to the tour, but then dropped: Karl Geiger. © APA/afp / CHRISTOF STACHE

The rivals Kubacki (leadership, consistency), Lindvik (run of two wins) and Kobayashi (strong in Bischofshofen) have better arguments. For Geiger, who started with two second places in his home town of Oberstdorf and in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the overall podium at the traditional event would also be a great success. Ryoyu Kobayashi (817 points/Japan) If all jumpers started with a tie, the Japanese would be the big favorite. Kobayashi probably has the best command of the Paul Ausserleitner ski jump compared to his competitors, but is already more than seven and a half meters behind Kubacki.

Last year he won confidently ahead of Kubacki and the Austrian Stefan Kraft and secured the tour trophy after four individual victories. He was also the strongest jumper from the top quartet in the qualification. With a jump to 134 meters he came sixth.
