Yeah, I noticed the Huawei hashtag on her IG account at the end of February so it's obvious with this and Red Bull sponsorship she's not gonna retire anytime soon :p

I commented back during the Worlds at her skill in working the Red Bull can into camera shot; this is the reward.  Take note, youngsters, practice during the off-season.

I remember many years ago when rugby was still supposedly amateur the captain of Scotland “worked” for a brewery.  No prizes for guessing which brand the Scottish team were always photographed drinking in the dressing room after a win.

Nice quote from people who never watch biathlon :p

Yeah, well, let's just say she won't be missed by many french biathlon fans....

 

The poor girl apparently just realized that being a professional athlete was about achieving results and not only about her own little pleasure on the tracks.

You were quicker than me, @Belle:p

 

I was just in the middle of posting the same. But once again, I was too slow.

 

I'm really looking forward to see what she can achieve in biathlon. :)
