Prevc is one of only two ski jumpers – the other being Matti Nykänen – to have won all five major titles in ski jumping (Olympic individual gold, World Championship individual gold in both ski jumping and ski flying, the Four Hills Tournament, and the overall World Cup title).[2][3] He is also the current world record holder for the longest official ski jump, landing at 254.5 metres (835 ft) in Planica on 30 March 2025.[4]

Career

2015: World Cup debut

Prevc competed in the 2015 European Youth Olympic Winter Festival. He made an individual World Cup debut on 22 November 2015 in Klingenthal with eighth place. He needed only four World Cup starts to reach his first podium on 19 December in Engelberg where he took second place.[5] At that event, Domen and Peter Prevc shared a podium as the first brothers in the World Cup history.[6]

2016: First win and yellow bib

Prevc won his first World Cup individual event on 25 November 2016 at the 2016–17 season opening in Ruka, and therefore wore yellow bib as the World Cup overall leader for the first time in his career.[7][8] Shortly after, in December, he won three more World Cup individual events in Klingenthal, Lillehammer and Engelberg.[9][10][11]

2017: Ski flying debut

Prevc in 2017

On 28 January 2017 in Willingen, together with his brothers Cene and Peter, he represented the Slovenia national team in the team event of the World Cup. It was the first time in history that three brothers were on the same team in a World Cup ski jumping competition.[12]

Despite his age, he competed for the first time in his career at the ski flying event in Oberstdorf on 3 February. On 19 March in Vikersund, he improved his personal best jump to 243.5 metres (799 ft).[13]

Personal life

Prevc was born in Kranj to Božidar and Julijana Prevc; the family has since been living in the village of Dolenja Vas. He has two brothers and two sisters.[14][15] Both his brothers, Peter and Cene, and one of his sisters, Nika, are also FIS Ski Jumping World Cup jumpers.[14] His father, who owns a furniture business, is also an international ski jumping referee.[16]
