- I had been looking forward to the WC but I feel that it is not working as it should, so I am traveling home and wish all the girls and boys the best of luck, she says in a statement.

Thus, there was no WC race for the 31-year-old who did not run the sprint.

Weng also missed the Olympics last year due to covid-19 and last spring she suffered a concussion after a slip accident.

Earlier this winter she told us that she still had quite a lot of headaches.

During the season, there were still four podium places, two of which were individual duels.

Ragnhild Haga, reserve at home, replaces Weng.

Tomorrow is the time for the women's skiathlon, in which Weng has won both Olympic and World Cup bronze.
