Oberstdorf (AP) - Olympic champion Johannes Rydzek is removed from the German squad for the Nordic combined team competition.
The six-time world champion and local hero will be replaced by Terence Weber on Sunday (10 a.m. and 3 p.m. / ARD and Eurosport), as the German Ski Association (DSV) confirmed on Saturday afternoon.
On Friday in the singles, Oberstdorf's Rydzek only finished 28th and had slumped in his specialty cross-country skiing at the end.
Eric Frenzel, Fabian Rießle and Vinzenz Geiger were seated.
Alongside Norway and Jarl Magnus Riiber, Germany is a hot contender for team gold.
