Nika Križnar claimed her first win in the International Ski Federation (FIS) Ski Jumping World Cup as she triumphed in Hinzenbach in Austria.

The 20-year-old Slovenian, who has competed at World Cup level since 2015, had already recorded the best individual result of her career this season when she finished second at the opener in Ramsau. 

She went one better in Hinzenbach, recording jumps of 89.0 metres and 90.5m to triumph with 237.4 points. 

Compatriot Ema Klinec was second after she scored 236.6 with jumps of 90.5m and 86.5m.

It has been a successful season for Slovenia so far, with the country topping the podium at the team event in January. 

In third place was Norwegian teenager Eirin Maria Kvandal.
