Kläbo triumphs again: 88th World Cup victory in Toblach!

An exciting start to the Tour de Ski: Johannes Hösflot Kläbo from Norway prevailed on December 28, 2024 in Toblach as an outstanding winner and celebrated another highlight of his impressive career with his 88th World Cup victory. The tension in the skating sprint was tangible, but only a few could follow the pace. He and the American Jessie Diggins, who triumphed in women, clearly showed the competition.

The Austrian athletes, on the other hand, had to fight with disappointments. Benjamin Moser narrowly missed the leap into the semi -finals and landed in 13th place. His colleagues, Teresa Stadlober and Mika Vermeulen, remained far behind the expectations and ended the qualifications in places 61 and 53. The other participants such as Katharina Brudermann (52nd) and Lukas Mrkonjic (34th) were also unable to convince in the first round, while only Moser and Magdalena Scherz made the hurdle into the quarterfinals, with joke 20th place occupied. In the coming week, the 15 km mass start races in the classic style will continue, which should provide new challenges, emphasized suedtirolnews.it .
