Manuel Fettner is probably taken again.
The Austrian ski star is currently recovering under the Thai sun - and is in love with his new partner.
Ko Pha-ngan – ski jumper Manuel Fettner can still do it.
The ÖSV-Adler impressively demonstrated that last year when he won silver on the normal hill and gold in the team competition with the Austrian team at the Olympic Games in Beijing.
But apparently he's not just in seventh heaven in sport: the 37-year-old is now in love with his ski jumping colleague Lisa Eder on Instagram.
Different seasons of the two enamored ÖSV eagles
Fettner and Eder recently posted several posts from their vacation on the Thai resort island of Ko Pha Ngan.
The two ÖSV athletes use the time on the island in the Gulf of Thailand, which is known above all for beautiful beaches and boisterous parties, to recover from a long and strenuous ski jumping season.
The 37-year-old Fettner won the World Cup on the large hill in Zakopane, Poland, with the Austrian team this year and also showed solid performances in other respects.
For Eder, on the other hand, who has been a multiple junior world champion in team competitions among other things, the season was disappointing: the 21-year-old was unable to take part in a World Cup show jumping event due to a cruciate ligament tear during training last June and has spent the last few months with a tight rehabilitation program.

ÖSV jumpers relax on a love vacation together in Thailand
Before the preparation for the new season begins for both of them, the two ÖSV eagles are now recovering together on the Thai holiday island.
The new jumper couple presents themselves on Instagram as fooling around and very happy – the ski aces enjoy the time together.
An official declaration of love from the two is still pending, but the pictures speak a clear language.
Eder also provided a contribution with a heart - a clear sign in the direction of her new partner, who, among other things, finished fifth in the third competition of the Four Hills Tournament 2020/21.

ÖSV jumpers already flew high together at the 2022 Olympics
The two ÖSV eagles have already worked together in sport.
Among other things, they competed for Austria in mixed team ski jumping at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing and achieved fifth place with Stefan Kraft and Daniela Iraschko-Stolz.
In the future, they may also fly high privately as a couple.
Professionally, things will get serious again for the two ÖSV eagles from the end of November when the first men's competition of the new season in Ruka, Finland and, a week later, the start of the year for women in Lillehammer, Norway.
Another ski Olympic champion from Norway, on the other hand, could not start for the entire next season.
