Japanese ski jump teenage star Sara Takanashi landed her second World Cup event of the weekend on Sunday in Rasnov, Romania, to put her Olympic disappointment firmly behind her. The 17-year-old - who failed to justify her favourite's tag and missed out on an Olympic medal in Sochi last month - recorded the 20th win of her young career in dominant style the day after her 19th win had given her the World Cup title.
Takanashi's 12th success of the season - achieved in the absence of Germany's Olympic champion Carina Vogt who did not compete because of a painful knee - took her onto a total of 1420 points with four events remaining.
