Lynn Svahn is having by far her best season in the World Cup, and with just three races left she is challenging the American Jessie Diggins for the victory in the overall World Cup.
Before the finish in Falun, there is a difference of 102 points between the two riders, with 345 points to go. Should the 24-year-old achieve a superb finish and take home the World Cup, she will be the first Swede ever to do so.
But already yesterday, Linn Svahn took home the sprint cup after the competitions in Drammen, by making it to the semi-finals. In the final, however, the 24-year-old was beaten by the Norwegian Kristine Stavå’s Ski City.
