Adam Malysz now in second place in ski-jumping's Four Hill Tournament
Polish ski jumper Adam Malysz placed third in the second event of the Four
Hill Tournament in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. The Pole made a record
jump of 129.5 meters. "He's on a roll. He's surpassing everyone and even
the safety limits of the hills, which is dangerous, but I am very proud of
it," said Apoloniusz Tajner, coach of the Polish national ski jumping
team. Malysz faces two more events in the tournament and is now ranked
second overall. "I believe he is capable of winning the whole Four Hill
Tournament," said Tajner. The third and fourth events will take place in
Innsbruck and Bischofshoffen on Thursday and Sunday, respectively. (Gazeta
