It was Prevc's sixth win of the season, which includes February's Winter Olympics. She also triumphed in the recent Two Nights Tour.

Nika's brother Domen Prevc leads the men's World Cup standings and is big favourite for Four Hills glory as the prestigious tournament wraps up in Austria's Bischofshofen on Tuesday.

The women again jump on the Villach normal hill on Tuesday.
