A few hours after the success, she was selected to Sweden's second team for today's sprint relay, together with Jonna Sundling.
Hesitant to start before the weekend
But on Sunday morning, she woke up and felt that she was not completely fresh in the airways, which meant that the national team management replaced her from the team.
