Sundling has undoubtedly been one of the world’s best cross -country skiers for several years and she is of course one of the favorites to win gold in sprint and sprint relay as well this World Cup in Trondheim. Perhaps Sweden can also challenge for gold in the baton.

One who really likes Jonna Sundling and is impressed by her achievements is the length legend Thomas Wassberg68. In an interview with the Sports Bible, he reveals that he is still following the sport today and that he thinks that above all the Swedish ladies are high class.
– Yes, I still check some and try to follow when there are competitions, he says and continues:
– It has been slow on the men’s side, but the ladies look good. It was only during the Tour de Ski that it did not go so well, but otherwise. There were some who were injured and sick. Then it is a special season with the World Cup later.
Wassberg’s words about Jonna Sundling
That Wassberg, who himself has four Olympic golds and seven World Cup medals on the track record, has a clear favorite is clear. When he is asked to pick out the Swedish skier, a man as a woman, who is the best right now he answers:
– Jonna Sundling, I think. What it seems.

However, he says that he cannot predict at all how it will go for neither Jonna nor the rest of the Swedish cross country team in the World Cup. He simply has not “been able to think about it” yet.
– No, I haven’t thought about that much, he replies.
Who do you think is the best in the Swedish cross country team right now? Do you agree with Thomas Wassberg that Jonna Sundling is the best, or are you of a different opinion? Feel free to comment!
