Norwegian Sturla Holm Laegreid, who attracted attention at the Winter Olympics after admitting that he cheated on his girlfriend shortly after winning a bronze medal, achieved a podium again this Friday. The result, however, angered French rival Émillien Jacquelin, who poked after taking 4th place.
What happened
In the men’s biathlon 10 km sprint contest, Laegreid finished in 3rd place. On Tuesday, he had already won bronze in the 20 km and made the confession after the podium.
Today’s bronze came in the final meters of the race and took the podium from Émillien Jacquelin. The Frenchman had a good performance at the beginning of the race and came to lead, but lost performance, saw the Norwegian take his medal and nudged him.
