The best Bulgarian ski jumper Vladimir Zografski finished 22nd at the Beijing Winter Olympics. The 28-year-old athlete jumped 97 meters and received 118 points in the final round, in which only the best 30 jumpers participated.

"Unfortunately, I didn't manage to make my jumps well. I missed a great chance. One has to be calm and I wanted success too much, that's why it happened," Zografski told BNT after the competition.
