Biathlon team causes big surprises
The young biathletes were particularly surprising on Saturday (March 5th, 2022) with three medals. The fact that this was also helped by the absence of the excluded Russians doesn’t make Beucher’s success any less valuable.
“Whether injured or disallowed, the competition is among those who are at the start”he said: “And the absence of the Russians is not unfair and it is not through no fault of their own.” Quade also explained: “Yes, that opens up new possibilities. But that applies to everyone.”
Backing for gold hopeful Forster
The fact that gold hope Anna-Lena Forster has won silver twice so far is not considered a disappointment by either of them.
“Those were two strong performances. She fully fulfills her role as a favourite.”said Beucher: “It could have been gold both times. And the hope is still there.” For Quade are “Two second places an outstanding result. And your special disciplines are still to come.”
