Martin Johnsrud Sundby’s (37) characteristic of Frida Karlsson (22) has reached the Swedish ski star. The answer is sour.
–
– He may not be the right person to speak. It was a bit strange, but I can answer him that he looked quite burned out he also on “Landskampen”, says Karlsson according to Aftonbladet.
To Expressen she asks: – Where is he now?
The 22-year-old is aiming for the duels in «Landskampen», which is shown on TV 2 and Swedish TV4. In the 2020 edition, Karlson competed for Sweden. It was against among others Sundby, who had to go to the hospital during the recording with an infection in the leg.
In March, it became clear that he was dropping the Olympics, and will focus on long distance running in the future.
These are Sundby’s statements in the VGTV program “Outside the Ski Trail” Karlsson has joined in advance of the Tour de Ski start on Tuesday.
– I think Frida looked tired and uncomfortable at that height. That tongue comes out eventually mostly, but it was out very early this time, described Sundby after that Karlsson became crushed by Johaug at the height of 10 kilometers in Davos two weeks ago.
Karlsson himself thought that she probably had a little too much respect for height. Sundby did not support that explanation in his summary:
– It’s about having a sting for something or other that that tongue comes. I think it came early this time. She learns and is young, and has run a few races in height. It requires a learning process to do good races (in height) – I know all about that myself, Sundby said.
– I am confident in my plan, and it feels good, Karlsson states to Aftonbladet.
PS! Johaug will not be in the Tour de Ski, but the Olympic tracks she will duel with Karlsson in a month and a half are at the height.
