Eckhoff flew forward in the track after his penalty round and was able to pass Dorothea Wierer who led after the second shooter and extended to the first starting Denise Herrmann, shot full, who finished second, 6.1 seconds behind the Norwegian.
- It is absolutely fantastic, says SVT Sports expert Helena Ekholm about Eckhoff's historical achievement.
Elvira Öberg became the best Swede as seventh after full shooting.
It received in the track at the sprint lap where she lost 25 seconds on Eckhoff but the starting position before the start of the hunt is excellent.
Elvira Öberg goes out 36 seconds behind Eckhoff.
- Finally, I'm so fed up that I can never shoot zero-zero.
I'm so happy and it's such a revenge from the last sprint.
That was true and I worked in the shots, says Elvira Öberg to SVT Sport.
In the sprint at the same place a week ago, she finished 61st and missed the start of the hunt.
Two booms by Hanna Öberg standing
Hanna Öberg had a good position before the second standing shot but missed the third and fourth shot and lost 46 seconds on the then leading Dorothea Wierer when she went out on the sprint lap.
She lost further at the end and went to the finish line really tired, 1.13 behind Eckhoff.
Öberg lost 28 seconds to Eckhoff on the sprint lap.
There was a second difference between the sisters in pure driving time.
Linn Persson, who was four in Sunday's hunt start, had a hard day with three booms.
