Brazil is out. Smart move, saving Bourguignon for the mixed relay anchor leg. After all, he's not the youngest anymore.

After avoiding the penalty lap in the prone shooting (0+3), Bruna hit a grand total of 1 target with 8 shots in the standing shooting  (4+6)

 

Ok, her rifle is half-broken due to someone else's fault, but I'm fairly sure she had hoped for a bit more.

OK, serious stuff now. Wierer #56 & Vittozzi #69 in Hochfilzen sprint so the excitement might last for a while here.

That's the World Cup though, so it'd be cool if World Cup stuff stays in the World Cup thread (so I can avoid that until I can watch the race later today)

Excellent shooting but meh skiing* for Claudia, excellent skiing but meh shooting for Jill.

 

 

*I think travelling from Chile to some town in nowhere, Italy and being underway for basically two full days and nights and then arriving somewhere around 04:00 is a valid excuse for mediocre skiing performance

Colombo must have had a fall, that is such a shame

Good result for  Tom Lahaye-Goffart in the individual in Obertilliach.  His first 20/20 in his career.   I wonder how many Belgian biathletes before him have shot a perfect 20/20 in the IBU Cup or World Cup?

 Meng with her first top 10 result in the IBU Cup.
