Russian biathlete Irina Kazakevich commented on the victory of the Italian Lisa Vittozzi in the general classification of the World Cup season.
By decision of the International Biathlon Federation (IBU), Russian and Belarusian biathletes have been suspended from participation in international competitions under the auspices of the organization since March 2022.
— Lisa is a wonderful person. Previous seasons didn’t work for her. Last season was very bad for her, but here she managed to rehabilitate and show an excellent fight.
This year, in women’s biathlon, five or six people could compete for the overall victory in the World Cup. There was a very close fight, and it’s wonderful, because before there were confrontations between two athletes. This year, Lisa was able to survive and win her first crystal globe,” Kazakevich said, as quoted by Metaratings.ru.
Vittozzi finished in first place in the World Cup final protocol with 1091 points, ahead of Frenchman Lou Jeanmonnot by 23 points and Norwegian Ingrid Tandrevold by 47.
