Tove Alexandersson has won the individual competition at the sprint-SM every year since 2014, except last year when she was second behind Karolin Ohlsson.
Now the star is back on the throne.
In Örebro, she was the best from start to finish and won in the end with a fairly superior 33 seconds ahead of Strand.
Third was IFK Lidingö's Emma Bjessmo, 14 seconds from Strand.
- It has gone well.
It was a lot of choices, but not very technical anyway, says Alexandersson to SVT Sport.
Alexandersson's victory time was just over 14 minutes and her only mistake was that she was unsure if she was registered at a check and turned around a few meters.
Tomorrow, SVT broadcasts the sprint relay from 13.30 on SVT1.
