Magnusson is a real big surprise? She is definitely the slowest of the team.

Weather will be quite a problem in the Sprint and Pursuits. The wind is supposed to freshen and it is supposed to get very cold, Sunday we will also be in the critical range around -15 degrees and lower. So maybe we see conditions like in the Mixed Relay.

The Green Bay Packers did a nice thing for some of the members of the US biathlon team from Wisconsin.

Coach Lukas says that she has impressed on recent training sessions and that Nilsson has had difficultites with the wind at the shooting range. But yes she should not have any chance even if the others have not impressed either.

They may also want to have another run towards the relay. I'm curious about the running time, so far the plans and expectations of the Swedes did not work out so well.

So, the best Norwegians going very early while Oeberg sisters with late numbers #45, #52. In fact the first Swede only starts with #35.

 

It doesn't look like Sweden is in their best form here but 10/10 will always leave them on a medal charge.
