The Olympic highlights on Monday, February 12, 2018

Pyeongchang (SID) After their double victory in the sprint, the German Olympic champions Laura Dahlmeier and Arnd Peiffer are also reaching for gold in the biathletes' pursuit. Dahlmeier takes to the track over the 10 km with a 24 second lead over the Norwegian Marte Olsbu, while Peiffer has a small advantage of four seconds over the Czech Michal Krcmar over the 12,5 km. Benedikt Doll, Simon Schempp and Erik Lesser for men and Vanessa Hinz for women also have good prospects for further top placements. Carina Vogt and Katharina Althaus go into the second women's jumping competition in Olympic history with a chance of winning a medal. Sochi winner Vogt took second and third place in the final training and then forgot the third jump. In the last round, Althaus managed the furthest set, but numerous favorites such as the Norwegian Maren Lundby, who was leading the overall World Cup, were no longer at the start. After Felix Loch's disappointment and Johannes Ludwig's bronze coup, the tobogganers go into the ice chute. The focus is on the last big duel between long-term rivals Natalie Geisenberger and Tatjana Hüfner. Olympic champion Geisenberger goes into the four races as the winner of the overall World Cup and the dominant athlete of the winter. But world champion Hüfner and the third German starter, Dajana Eitberger, are also given good chances.
