DIRECT. Biathlon Worlds: four French vying for gold on the individual. Sport

Who to succeed Martin Fourcade ? The “master” retired after a World Cup 2020 in Antholz-Anterselva (Italy) successful (two titles on the individual and the relay and one bronze medal in sprint) and will be present in the stands of Pokljuka (Slovenia) to observe who will take over.

Beautiful people to succeed Martin Fourcade

On the starting line there is a risk of jostling to recover the crown. Among the French, Émilien Jacquelin and Quentin Fillon-Maillet are serious contenders for the title. But it will be necessary to do with the reigning Olympic champion and vice-world champion of the individual in Antholz (Italy): the Norwegian Johannes Thingnes Boe. Without forgetting the Russian Alexander Loginov or the young Norwegian of 23 years: Sturla Holm Lægreid (bib 66). And why not a surprise with Simon Desthieux, well on his feet in these Slovenian worlds. In any case Martin Fourcade will have to pass the torch, whatever happens.

Let the race begin!
