Before Thursday's 15-kilometer race, Hanna Öberg had the chance to take home the distance cup.

However, the Swede shot away immediately, and she did not take the chance to catch up with the Italian Lisa Vittozzi.

- It's such a shame about the first shot.

It will be tough in this form of competition to start with a second (two misses), says Hanna Öberg to SVT Sport and continues:

- It was a bit tougher out on the track than I had imagined.

It's going pretty rough today.

Dorothea Wierer, also from Italy, won the race.

Before the competition was over, it was clear that all the Swedish women were far from a podium place.

The competition is ongoing - the text is updated.
