In the end the individual gold comes for Bø

Bø has already won two gold medals in Antholz, but both in relay competitions. Now the Norwegian high-flyer also has his individual gold medal - won in the very last race of the Biathlon World Cup in Antholz. Thanks to a flawless shooting performance, Bø won comfortably ahead of the two Frenchmen Quentin Fillon Maillet and Emilien Jacquelin.

The latter in particular had to fight hard for his medal because Tarjei Bø was breathing down his neck until the last meter. In the final sprint, Jacquelin finally came out on top and won his fourth precious metal in Antholz. In general, the French achieved an outstanding overall mass start result: Because Simon Desthieux came fifth and Martin Fourcade seventh, all French people finished the competition in the top seven. North Tyrolean Felix Leitner was also strong, finishing third with three shooting errors. South Tyroleans outside the top ranks For Dominik Windisch and Lukas Hofer, however, there was less to be gained. Both made three errors on the shooting range and finished the World Cup final in 14th (Windisch) and 18th (Hofer). While it is by far the best individual result of the World Cup for Windisch (previously it was 48th place in the sprint), Hofer was slightly better in the individual, coming in 13th.
