And one, and two, and three ! Frenchwoman Justine Braisaz-Bouchet continues to shine in this Swiss stage of the Biathlon World Cup. This Sunday, she won the mass start (12.5 kilometers) of Lenzerheide, third stage of the world championships, and completed an exceptional triple sprint/pursuit/mass start this weekend in the Swiss resort.
Olympic champion in the event in Beijing in 2022, Justine Braisaz-Bouchet achieved a flawless rifle performance (20/20) to beat the Swedish sisters Elvira and Hanna Oeberg. She is taking advantage of this perfect weekend to at the same time seize the yellow leader’s bib of the Biathlon World Cup, which she will wear from January 4 to 7 in Oberhof (Germany) for the resumption of the season. With 427 points, she is just ahead of the Norwegian Ingrid Tandrevold (417 points).
This Saturday, she already offered great success to France alongside her teammate Julia Simon, her runner-up in the women’s pursuit rankings. On Thursday, she got off to the best start to this Swiss weekend by winning the sprint, ahead of the Norwegian Ingrid Tandrevold and the Italian Lisa Vittozzi.
