Let us recall that today Ukrainian juniors and junior women triumphantly performed in sprint races at the World Championships in Otepää, Estonia, presenting themselves and the entire country with a magnificent gift for Independence Day. Vitaliy Mandzyn won gold, and Viktoria Khvostenko and Elena Gorodnaya became silver and bronze medalists, respectively.
