Se Ponsiluoma’s last shot in the player above
Martin Ponsiluoma’s medal hopes died in the first shot. After two misses, the Swede went out in 41st place, but he saved the situation in the second shot.
Five hits in 21 seconds made Ponsiluoma climb significantly in the results list.
”That’s so important, not just for today but also for tomorrow’s pursuit,” said SVT commentator Ola Bränholm.
Today’s sprint results will form the basis for tomorrow’s pursuit, which means that Ponsiluoma will start out as tenth – just over a minute behind today’s winner Johannes Thingnes Bö.
