Olympic hopes lift the ranking after the premiere success

Leksand extended the winning streak beat AIK

The result means that the Swedish duo climbs the world ranking from twelfth to eighth place.

“As a whole, we do a really good tournament and get a fantastic start to the Olympic qualifiers. We beat four teams that are top-10 in the world. Now we have to work hard on developing certain parts for the next competition in Mexico,” says national team captain Rasmus Jonsson in a press release.

David Åhman and Jonatan Hellvig surprisingly won EC gold in Munich last summer.

24 teams will get the chance in the Olympics.
