This Marte Olsbu Röiseland is a phenomenon. The Norwegian also ran a lonely race in the pursuit and celebrated a lights-to-flag victory. After 10 kilometers and four shooting tests, Röiseland finished almost two minutes ahead of her competitors. Elvira Öberg from Sweden secured silver. Tiril Ekchoff (Norway) took bronze.
Preuss can finally laugh
The German ski hunters made amends after the historically bad sprint. Above all, Franziska Preuss, who was finally able to laugh again. With 19 of 20 goals, Preuss jumped from 30th to 15th place. Only Vanessa Voigt from the German team was better, who also had a penalty and ended up in 12th place
For Denise Herrmann it looked like a place in the top ten until the last shooting. The Olympic singles champion took a risk on the last standing stage and missed two targets, but that was a significant drop.
Vanessa Hinz made the biggest leap forward, moving up 34 places: from 55th place to 21st place.
