Well I’m that like for biathlon & CC which we see on YouTube, there is still an active Modern Pentathlon Tour within Russia & they are probably making as much money as the international athletes are. My theory is that when they come back they will have a generation of stars, because right now the Juniors are in the same competition as the Seniors every week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grassmarket 2,786 Posted April 27 #78 Share Posted April 27 Meltdown for the ages for Bence Demeter - came into the last shoot with a 5 sec lead….finished fifth. Olympic selection going to be a nightmare - Elgendy won today, Shaban third, Hamed fourth. Balasz Szep got the Silver. Josh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just say winner take all at the World Cup Finals in Bulgaria, but it will be cruel for somebody. Too late to switch to ! thepharoah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
