Frenzel: Home World Cup 2021 and Olympics 2022 “still big goals”

Munster (SID) Even after his “golden” days of Pyeongchang, combiner Eric Frenzel still hasn’t had enough. Even if he is "gradually getting to an age" at which he can "already" think about resigning, this will only happen in the medium term, the Oberwiesenthal native explained in an interview with sport.de, RTL's internet portal. “The home World Cup in 2021 in Oberstdorf and maybe even the Olympic Games in 2022 are still big goals. But I have to think from step to step and am still keeping that open,” said the 29-year-old, who not only won gold twice in South Korea and won bronze once, but was also allowed to lead the German Olympic team into the stadium as flag bearers at the opening ceremony. He will continue as long as he still enjoys Nordic combined. "I've lived with the sport for many years, I just enjoy it that way. As long as my family, above all, has my back, we'll continue like this," said Frenzel, the third-best combined athlete with three golds, one silver and two bronzes Olympic history behind the Finn Sampa Lajunen (3-2-0) and the Austrian Felix Gottwald (3-1-3). The German “dominators” won all three competitions in Pyeongchang. Four-time world champion Johannes Rydzek (Oberstdorf) won the individual race on the large hill ahead of Fabian Rießle (Breitnau) and Frenzel. In addition, the trio, together with young star Vinzenz Geiger (Oberstdorf), could not be beaten in the team competition. At the start, Frenzel triumphed in the individual on the normal hill.
