Love secret revealed: The new biathlon dream couple

Sturla Holm Lægreid's rise is phenomenal. Last year the Norwegian was still languishing in the second-tier IBU Cup, but this year he was one of the best of the best in his debut season in the World Cup. In the fight for the overall World Cup, he was in the race until the end. The 23-year-old also won the World Championships on the Pokljuka - as the South Tyroleans like to say - "to shreds" everything and returned home with four gold medals.

Although: Lægreid did not go home to Norway after the World Cup. “I don’t have a girlfriend at home waiting for me, so I can stay here and enjoy life in Central Europe,” he said after the title fights ended in mid-February. It wouldn't be surprising if the Norwegian secretly smiled mischievously at this statement, because: There is a friend in Sturla Holm Lægreid's life - but she doesn't come from Norway. “I have to share some victories with her.” Sturla Holm Lægreid As it became known at the World Cup final in Östersund, Lægreid is in a relationship with the American biathlete Chloe Levins. The 22-year-old from New York mainly runs in the IBU Cup, but also sporadically competes in the World Cup. “Our love secret has probably been revealed,” Lægreid confirmed the relationship in an interview with Norwegian Radio. “But it’s nice to have someone who supports me in the World Cup races.”

After the World Cup, the two spent a few days together in idyllic Ramsau in Styria. They were also seen together several times at the World Cup final, including during the warm-up. During the pursuit race, the American cheered on her loved one next to the track. “She has been very supportive this season and has been very important in my daily life. I think I have to share some victories with her,” the Norwegian shooting star enthuses about his lady of hearts. So things are crackling in the biathlon circus.
