Nordic Combined

Each event consists of a ski jump followed by a cross country race (freestyle). The cross country starting order in all events is determined by finish in ski jump. The Sprint event was added in 2002. The Jump column shows the athlete's final jump score, in points, with place in parentheses. Cross country times shown are adjusted to include the competitors' staggered start time.

Medal breakdown (3 events): Four medals—Finland (3-1-0); Three—Austria (0-0-3); Two—Germany (0-2-0).
