Thomas Turnbichler categorically denied the rumors about Piotr Zhil. The breeder of the Polish ski jumping team told what the athlete is most impressed with.
In the winter ski jumping season 2022/23, the attention of Polish fans is riveted primarily on David Kubacki, who finishes most of the World Cup competitions on the podium. Petr Zhyla also looks great in competitions. When asked about cooperation with the 35-year-old player, Thomas Turnbichler did not spare warm words. He also denied the rumors that are circulating in the jump environment about the Pole.

It is worth recalling that since the beginning of November, Belka has never finished the competition outside the top ten. On the other hand, he was on the podium only twice - in Ruka and in Engelberg. However, his form is definitely equal, at a high level. This means he can screw up in the 4-Hills-Tournament.
- Like David, he is in a very stable shape and he never misses in a competitive jump. Most importantly, Piotrek is constantly improving his jumps. For example, in Engelberg he jumped the best of the season. His positive, sporty character, self-confidence can also impress,” said the coach of the white-reds, whose words are quoted by sportfakty.wp.pl.

Turnbichler was also asked about how he works with Zhila. Many people think that because of the unusual nature of the sport, it is difficult. The Austrian categorically denied this.
Everyone says that Piotrek is not an easy jumper to handle, but I did not notice it. We have had a very good relationship since our first practice together and he accepted the plan we prepared for his jumps. He always works 100 percent, his dedication and constant desire to improve his jumps is good to see.
