Switzerland's Simon Ammann added the World Cup title to his double Olympic gold on Friday after winning the penultimate round in Lillehammer.

Ammann is the first Swiss ski jumper to win the World Cup and caps an historic season when he became the first man to win four individual Olympic titles having also clinched double gold at Salt Lake City in 2002.

The 28-year-old won eight World Cup rounds this season and succeeds Austria's Gregor Schlierenzauer, who finished in second place.

On Friday, Ammann won with jumps of 135m and 133.5m for a total points score of 274.5.

Schlierenzauer was second (135.5m and 132.5m - 271.4pts) with Poland's Adam Malysz (135.5m and 127.5m - 265.9pts) taking third.

The final round of the World Cup takes place on Sunday in Oslo before the best ski jumpers head for the world championships at Planica in Slovenia from March 20-22.
