Biathlete Simon’s Mental Exhaustion and Credit Card Scandal: Expert Analysis and Fallout

“I lacked mental freshness. It’s strange that I’m saying this after the first race, but I’m mentally exhausted. It’s not a race that I should hopefully forget, but I need to find the mental freshness again to do it. and she was able to focus again in the decisive moments,” surprised the Frenchwoman with an open confession to the newspaper L’Equipé after she finished 31st in the first individual race in Östresund.

According to Rösch, the credit card affair will increasingly affect the French star. “It is still a topical issue and cannot be swept under the carpet. I was surprised how long she was able to suppress all this in herself,” the expert pointed out. “But at some point, the house of cards just collapses,” he pointed out.

Simon’s colleague Justine Braisazová-Bouchetová accused her of stealing money from a credit card for shopping. The whole thing has been going on since the summer of 2022, the police got involved in the case and the final resolution of the case is still awaited. It’s clear that the atmosphere is suitably intense, even though in Thursday’s race both athletes were able to ride in the same team and helped the French relay to fifth place.

“Braisazová-Bouchetová and Simonová were never the best of friends. They kept meeting each other in their careers. They come from the same city, both started cross-country skiing in the same club, then both switched to biathlon. One was always worse than the other,” noted Rösch.

He points out that the psychological effects of the hot case are already clearly visible on Simonová.

“It is already evident from Simonová’s body language that the house of cards has collapsed. I’ve often talked about how mental health is hugely important here. Especially in biathlon, where you need a strong head. And now she doesn’t have it,” added Rösch.
