“Good Strategy”

Today’s victory gave the 2023 World Cup total Score winner four individual WCH Gold medals. “It feels so good. It was so hard in the last lap. My legs were burning so much. But I feel really good. I think I had a really good strategy on skis. I started fast, but not too fast. Always in a good rhythm. I felt confident on the shooting range, so I feel really good. “

“Strong talk with Jean Paul”

She admitted the past few days have been rough, but she had confidence today after a talk with Coach Jean Paul Giachino. “The last week was very tough. I had a big fall in the Mixed Relay and had a lot of headaches. I felt like my focus was not really good ion the shooting range, so I slept a lot. This morning, I had a strong talk with Jean Paul. I told him I feel like I enjoy biathlon but am missing something really important like I had last winter. Something you can have in the last lap to make the difference. He said, ‘If you can’t do biathlon so good for you, do it for your family and staff. I thought about it a lot during the race today and feel amazing.”
