This competition was held on Nizhny Tagil's normal hill.

Bogataj was distant from her team mate with 227.0 points, just ahead of Germany's Katharina Althaus who took the bronze with 225.9 - her first individual podium in nearly two years.

Austrian Marita Kramer's run of five straight wins came to an end, having being unable to replicate the dominant form of yesterday's win.

She claimed the gold by finishing a staggering 41.7 points ahead of Klinec yesterday, the biggest winning margin in the history of the women's Ski Jumping World Cup.

Kramer could only finish fourth on 222.1, with a large gap back to Japan's Sara Takanashi who scored 204.1 points in fifth.

Klinec leads Kramer by 30 points in the season standings, followed by Bogataj and Althaus as only four riders have 100 points or more.
