21:13. This Friday evening, Austrian biathlete Anna Gandler announced on her Instagram account that she had decided to put an end to her competitive season. In a video, the former World Youth Pursuit Champion revealed her decision, which was prompted by a series of illnesses.
Still present in Nove Mesto (Czech Republic) last week, Anna Gandler was unable to compete. The 24-year-old Austrian, who was in the form of her life just a year ago, will now focus on resting to regenerate before beginning her Olympic preparations in a few weeks’ time.
