Prevc kicks off Two Nights Tour with win in Garmisch-Partenkirchen

Defending ski jumping World Cup champion Nika Prevc kicked off the women's Two Nights Tour with a large hill win in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany on Wednesday.

The Slovenian soared to 136.5 metres and 134.5m for a total of 271.1 points, beating Germany's Selina Freitag by 23.1 points. World Cup leader Nozomi Maruyama of Japan claimed third place.

Prevc and Maruyama have dominated the season, with each of them with five wins from 11 events so far.

While the men are competing at the Four Hills Tournament, the women have the Two Nights Tour in Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Oberstdorf.

The event was originally known as the Silvester Tour and took place across Austria and Slovenia, but was rebranded for the 2023-24 campaign.

The women are expected to compete at the Four Hills Tournament from the 2026-27 season.
