The innkeeper could enjoy the fourth best individual result during this winter. He continued his good form from Sunday’s fighter during the previous New Town cup episode, when he also shone with clean shooting and a shift of 25 places.
Also in yesterday’s sprint, he got along with a small shotgun and shot down all the targets. “It was terribly balanced, on a hard surface over twenty people leveled out in a minute. In addition, the shooting range was burning very fast, I was missing small details in the elite ten, “admitted Krčmář.

Štvrtecký started with number one and arrived very first at the shooting range, where he made a mistake on the bed. But then he ran well and fired cleanly, which helped him to a solid position. Junior Karlík, who started only for the third time in the SP race, finished only five places behind him. He was the fastest of the Czech five runners, and he prepared an even better result with two inaccuracies when standing up.
Ondřej Moravec finished 59th with three mistakes and narrowly entered the fighter race, which will be the last individual race in his career. “It’s not very good, but I won’t let the mood say goodbye. Running was probably the best performance in 2021, but I wanted too zero on the stand and left two targets there, “he explained.
The last New Town sprint was won by the Frenchman Desthieux, now he was followed by his compatriot Fillon Maillet, who was able to surpass even the excellent Norwegians. The best of them was Tarjei Boe, but in the finish, the fifth Lägreid is catching up with his younger sibling Johannes Thingnes in the battle for the big crystal globe more and more.
