31-year-old Stenersen debuted in the World Cup in January 2015 and has during his career gained a podium position when he was a member of the team that won the relay in Hochfilzen in December 2018.   

The past season has been heavier for Stenersen who had difficulty shooting. At best, in an individual start he has managed a 40th place.

- Stenersen has had an important role for the Swedish men's team. Above all, he has been an important tile in several relays. Among other things, his huge distance in Hochfilzen 2018 when Sweden won is worth remembering, says SVT biathlon commentator Ola Bränholm.

- The hole Stenersen leaves behind means that there is a vacancy in each competition. So the question is whether young Malte Stefansson is allowed to run a full World Cup program already next winter, Bränholm asks.
