Josephine Pagnier jumps to her first victory in carieer during Sunday's competition in Lillehammer.

The list of evidence that Lillehammer is the place par excellence for premieres in women's ski jumping is one entry richer: Josephine Pagnier won her first World Cup competitionwith her jumps of 140.5 and 134.5 metres and 272.4 points with the large hill individual. Second place went to qualification winner Alexandria Loutitt with 139.5 and 135.5 metres and 267.5 points. Third place went to Eirin Maria Kvandal with 135.5 and 132.5 metres and 252.8 points - despite missing out on bonus points for shortening the inrun in the final jump.

Kvandal's team-mate Silje Opseth redeemed herself with fourth place after missing out on qualification on the normal hill. Ema Klinec was the best Slovenian in fifth place and one of her team-mates, Nika Kriznar, also made it into the top ten. Japan also had two athletes in the top ten with Sara Takanashi and the previous day's winner Yuki Ito in sixth and seventh place.

Katharina Schmid was the best German and finished the competition on her favourite hill in eighth place. Meanwhile, Luisa Görlich achieved a good result with two stable jumps and 14th place. Nika Prevc put in the biggest recovery in the final round, fighting her way up from 28th to 17th place with 130 metres.

Sara Marita Kramer was the best Austrian in ninth place, while Julia Mühlbacher, Jacqueline Seifriedsberger, Chiara Kreuzer and Lisa Eder all finished in the midfield in 16th, 18th, 21st and 25th. Switzerland's Sina Arnet confirmed her result from the previous day in 30th place, while Katra Komar (Slovenia) and Paige Jones (USA) finished 26th and 29th respectively, two jumpers who had missed out on the points on Saturday.
