2023 got off to a great start for Katharina Althaus: The ski jumper won three gold medals at the World Championships.

The year should also be a very special one privately.

Planica - black-red-GOLD!

Germany is currently doing well at the Nordic World Ski Championships in Planica, Slovenia.

The main reason for this are the successes in ski jumping.

And there is an athlete for whom February is phenomenal: Katharina Althaus.

The hat trick of our 155 centimeter little ski jumping giant, who is now a total of seven times world champion, is by no means the only reason for celebration in the Althaus family.
