Sara Takanashi (高梨 沙羅, Takanashi Sara) (born 8 October 1996) is a Japanese ski jumper. She is the most successful female ski jumper to date, as well as one of the most successful athletes in the history of the sport, having won four World Cup overall titles (an all-time record shared with Matti Nykänen and Adam Małysz), five World Championship medals, and a Winter Olympic medal. As of March 2020, Takanashi holds the record for the most individual World Cup wins, male or female, with 57.[1]

Career

Takanashi placed sixth in the 2011 World Championship in Oslo. In the World Cup she debuted on 3 December 2011 in Lillehammer where she took fifth place.

During the 2013–14 season, Takanashi won 15 out of 18 individual World Cup ski jumping events. At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, she was ranked third after her first jump in the medal round, but dropped to fourth place in the final round and missed the podium.[2]

In the 2015–16 season she won her third and record World Cup overall title four events before the end of the season.
