Johannes Thingnes Bö Becomes Record Biathlon World Champion

The Norwegian biathlete secures his 21st world title in his final sprint, while German athletes struggle in a disappointing performance.

Johannes Thingnes Bö wins his 21st world championship gold medal, surpassing Ole Einar Björndalen as the most successful biathlete in history.
Bö delivered a flawless performance in the Lenzerheide sprint, finishing ahead of American Campell Wright and Frenchman Quentin Fillon Maillet.
German biathletes experienced a challenging day, with Philipp Nawrath finishing 18th as the best-placed German, and others finishing far behind.
Errors at the shooting range and a fall in the penalty loop hindered the German team, continuing a pattern of inconsistent performances this season.
Bö, who plans to retire after this season, remains the favorite for the upcoming pursuit event, where his dominance is expected to continue.
