Franziska Preuss came to the BMW IBU World Cup circuit as a huge talent after a junior career filled with IBU YJWCH medals and three Youth Olympic Games Gold medals and one Silver in 2012. Her junior success led to a spot on Germany’s World Cup squad and her OWG debut in Sochi.
Preuss claimed her first-ever World Cup podium in the 2015 Ruhpolding mass start and four years later added her first-ever win in the same competition, also in her home Chiemgau Arena. In the 2019/20 season, Preuss added two more World Cup podiums plus a consistent string of top 10 results to her resume, pushing her to a then-personal best sixth place in the World Cup Total Score. Since the 2016/17 season, Preuss has steadily climbed the Women’s World Cup Total Score rankings, going from 35th that year to her best-ever 3rd in the 2020/21 season, another year of consistent Top 10 performances including three individual BMW IBU World Cup podiums.
Preuss is well known for her calm demeanor and prone shooting where she regularly closes 93% of her targets.
She lives and trains in Ruhpolding, enjoying the mountains, sports, and time with friends and family.
