Gregor Schlierenzauer won a ski flying meet Sunday and clinched the overall World Cup ski jumping title.

The Austrian took a big lead by soaring 207.5 meters in the opening round. The other jumpers were not even close to the 200-meter mark. In the second round, Schlierenzauer hit 192 meters for a total of 386.4 points.

Schlierenzauer failed to win an individual gold medal at last month's Nordic World Ski Championships in the Czech Republic.
