10:34. A few days ago, Montblanc-born Jacques Jefferies left his Haute-Savoie Nordic Team training team-mates to travel to Obertilliach (Austria), where the British national team is currently on a training camp.
This weekend, selection races are being held at the Austrian stadium. Although Jacques Jefferies is already guaranteed to start his international season in the IBU Cup next week, he still took part in the sprint on Friday morning.
He won with 7/10, beating Ukrainian Oleksandrs Ponomaren (9/10) by 7 sec 2. Two other Ukrainians fought it out for the last place on the podium, which was finally won by Volodymyr Aksiuta (9/10). Mongolia’s Enkhsaikhan Enkhbat (10/10) finished sixth.
In the women’s category, Ukraine’s Tetiana Tarasiuk (10/10) won just ahead of Canada’s Moira Green (10/10).
