Marina Wallner got the ticket for the Olympic Winter Games in Pyeongchang with 15th place. She had to admit defeat in the quarter-finals after a goal error Vlhova.
Christina Geiger was the best German in ninth place, and like Jessica Hilzinger in 13th place, she met the “half” standard for the Winter Games. After a round of sixteen, Geiger had only just failed at Skjöld. Hilzinger was also too strong in the round of the last eight Curtoni.
