Well, his shooting is just too inconsistent. Could end up with 5/10 or something tomorrow (like he did last week).

Correct.

 

Meanwhile, from which hole did Matej Kazar crawl out of to shoot 10/10 today? :surprise: Is he trying to steal someone's spot in the Slovak relay? @hckošice

haha, no way. he ended his career a few years ago. Basically, he is just a kind of a hobby athlete.:p He now has a job as a member of the coaching team. He go cross-country skiing here and there just for fun and keep his weight during free time. He was basically forced to compete here only because we had plenty of so-called free "home team" quotas.

 

He is definitely not even dreaming about Beijing :d

Nice win for Claude.  With the Pursuit cancelled, this is the last race prior to the European Open Championship for the men.  It looks like there will be very few big names at the EOC due to the close proximity of the Olympic Games, and the desire to be at altitude.  

 

As an aside, when was the last time the Norwegians shot this poorly:

One more thing, congrats to George Buta from Romania, he had a great shooting weekend, and did not miss a shot in the weeks races.  He actually has had a very solid season.

22nd Matej Kazár despite a crash in the last lap. What a story seriously. 2 seasons Retired, nowadays coach assistant who did not compte more than 2 years in this sport, Literally humiliated all other SVK entries today :lol:

I did not want to bring that up :), but the US had a situation like that back in the early 1970s.  One of the early, think early 1960s biathletes who had retired and who owned a sporting goods store, showed up at the trials simply to see old friends and have fun.  He ended up qualifying for the World Championships.
