20-year-old super talent Frida Karlsson does not return early enough to participate in the Tour de Ski. This is something that Anders Blomquist thinks is a shame considering that he thinks she could have made a good competition.
- It feels extremely sad that she can't be with me because I think it would have suited her well, he says.
But he also understands why the decision is made.
- Well, health is ahead. So that is the right decision, there is no other way.
He is also not surprised that she does not start a competition as challenging as the Tour de Ski is.
- Given the past few weeks, it was not entirely surprising. At the same time, it is hoped that she will return soon.
