Sweden missed the podium in Thursday's sprint, but with four Swedes among the top ten, the starting position in the chase was favorable.
While the sisters Öberg and Anna Magnusson did not make it in the prone shooting, Linn Persson was in the fight for victory for a long time.
The Värmland native shot fully until the last shot, when she was the first to enter the rampart together with Julia Simon close behind.
However, there were two misses for Persson, which meant that she slipped into the results list.
The best Swede was instead Elvira Öberg, who stood for a strong finish.
Lampic was missing
Anamarija Lampic, who roared when she finished fifth in the sprint, did not start in the pursuit start.
However, she will run Sunday's relay, confirms her coach Ricco Gross.
- The relay is very important for us and Lampic is new and should not be matched too hard, he tells L'Équipe.
