Riiber won the individual competition with a jump from the small hill and 7.5 km of cross-country skiing. He thus extended his World Championship record to ten titles - five individual, five with the team. In a thrilling final sprint, he relegated his compatriot Jens Oftebro and Germany's Vinzenz Geiger to the places of honor.

A Swiss combined athlete also competed for the first time since 2019. Pascal Müller from Glarus finished 32nd in his World Championships debut. He was seventeenth after the jumping event.
