After a flawless shooting by Stina Nilsson in prone, the Swede was in victory mode. But then there were two hurdles in standing and instead she finished third, just over 13 seconds behind the victorious Maren Kirkeeide, Norway.
Both the Norwegian and runner-up Maya Cloetens, Belgium, were flawless in their shooting.
Despite the strong results, Johannes Lukas believes that Stina Nilsson’s return to the World Cup will be delayed.
– I think it’s nice for her to compete in peace and quiet at the IBU Cup.
