Biathlon IBU World Cup 2019 - 2020

Terrible news about the knee.  Is there anyone on the IBU Cup that they could bring in for the weeks where there is a relay?

 

The US men were terrible yesterday.  I hope the women can do better.  Great job French yesterday.  It looked like an IBU Cup result with either Norway or Germany.

Paja no

For the women's individual I like that there are some names that could do something near the end of the race.  I am looking forward to see how C Chevalier from France will do, she starts 94th.  Cadurisch had had some good races, she starts 98th.   Mari Eder of Finland and Joanne Reid are two apart and E Oeberg is in the middle of them all in the later 70s.  So there are some interesting options later int he race.

Doesn't look like it.

Smerciakova got 128 points and 175 points so we should see a relay at the World Championships

Yeah I just saw her second result and considering how far behind she was, didn't take the 5 second effort to check the first one

Haecki was doing so well

[Werloc 3,164]

Is this a relay start list?

 

 

 

Edit: Okay, before I did this, I haven't read the other comments saying that Slovakia won't be starting a relay at all. Hoping Paja gets better as soon as possible.

So for future note, do not listen to anything I say about races.  

Chevalier - 26th

Cadurisch - 97th 

Eder - 54th

Reid - DNS

E. Oeberg - 36th
