Oriane Bertone #1 in Prague

Oriane Bertone secured the gold medal at the Prague World Cup after winning the semifinal, as the final was cancelled due to safety concerns caused by strong winds. Her French teammate Agathe Calliet placed second, with Japanโ€™s Melody Sekikawa finishing third.

Bertone had previously earned two silver medals and a fourth-place finish in the first three World Cup events of 2025. After the semifinal, she commented, โ€œThe first three comps were frustrating for me as I know I have the level to do great things, but I am so close yet not doing it. And if I could do it here, that would be so awesome.โ€
