RICHARD Jeanne

World Cup Total Score leader Franziska Preuss looks ready for a career-best BMW IBU World Championships when the 2025 edition opens Wednesday. The unstoppable German force will still have no easy road. Sharpshooters, a multi-World Champion and several wild cards will push Preuss in her medal quest.

January 19, 2025, will be a date that Jeanne Richard will remember for a long time: her first World Cup podium, third place in the Ruhpolding Women’s Mass Start, achieved by brilliant 20-for-20 shooting, while gamely challenging established stars Franziska Preuss and Dorothea Wierer on the tracks.
