Samuelsson missed silver by 0.4 secs

Nice 6th place for the West Coast representative Michal Krčmář.

 

btw..fun fact did you know that his dad competed at the Olympics for Slovakia ? in Lillehammer 94. the whole Mens relay was made by technically Czechs but since they were competing for slovak military club, they represented Slovakia in 94. was a pretty mess at that time

Kaukenas had a chance for Top 20 finish but two misses on the last stand. Strolia with another shocker, barely beats the wild missing Finello by one second despite hitting 4 more targets

 

Jan Guńka with 7 misses and another day to forget for our bunch of never weres And he is supposedly the one Polish junior that has prospects not to look like a complete fool on World Cup. Can go go better from here.

The start number or start group, however, indicates that it rather does not start or they are still very uncertain. 
In these conditions, a start doesn't really make sense for them. Also Simon and Wierer might have no chance because of their stature.
For the relays on Saturday it is supposed to get even worse, currently heavy rain or possibly sleet is predicted.

Zuzana Remeňová replaced Júlia Machyniaková in our team for the rest of the WCh.

 

Matej Kazár also returned home to his job
