Over the past three years, Tove Alexandersson has dominated big in the World Cup, with three gold in a row at long distance and two gold from three possible at medium distance. The favorite team is now no less because this year's World Cup is all about these disciplines and relay. The sprint branches will have their own World Cup next year.

- Above all, I think it's good that all the best can run all distances. It will be fun with a slightly shorter World Cup program where the best can really participate in everything, says Tove Alexandersson.

Won the O-Ring by far

Recently, Tove won the 5-day O-Ring with a crazy margin of over half an hour. She has won the World Cup for five years in a row, but if she relaxes too much it can go like in the middle distance of last year's World Cup, where she completely lost herself on a Latvian mountain side.

- It is also the setbacks that make me want to work even harder for the future and improve things, says Tove Alexandersson about that mistake.

Where do you get your hunger for new victories?

- The biggest motivation is not just victories, but to continue to challenge my own boundaries.
