Wassberg tells the Sports Bible that he still has a pretty good track of skiing today, especially on the Swedes competing.
– 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.
