Season overview
The first edition of the Silvester Tournament (women's version of the Four Hills Tournament) was held with two knockout events from 31 December 2021 to 1 January 2022 in Ljubno, Slovenia.[3] The Alpenkrone Tournament – consisting of one competition in Ramsau and two in Hinzenbach – also made its debut in the women's competition.[4]
Fatih Arda İpcioğlu became the first Turkish ski jumper in history of World Cup who managed to qualify to the main competition at the season opener in Nizhny Tagil.[5]
On 26 November 2021, Marita Kramer won the individual competition with the biggest ever lead over the second-placed athlete (Ema Klinec) in the history of the Women's World Cup with 41.7 points.[6]
For the first time since the 1983–84 season, six different athletes won the first six men's individual competitions.[7]
After the competition in Innsbruck was cancelled, the Four Hills Tournament was held only on three hills; this has only happened once before in the tournament's 70-year history, in the 2007–08 season.[8]
On 1 March 2022, following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the International Ski Federation (FIS) decided to exclude athletes from Russia and Belarus from FIS competitions, with an immediate effect.[9]
