Cross-country skiing: Kevin Bolger’s fate to be decided on 16 February
Kevin Bolger and Maja Dahlqvist are a couple. For several months, they have been living in Trondheim (Norway) to prepare for the next world championships, which they hope to experience (again) as a couple.
In the hunt for medals that will keep the caravan busy for a fortnight, the Swede is one of the great hopes of the Nordic kingdom. Admittedly, she had to abandon the Tour de Ski because of a cold, which prematurely ended her participation in this major event. However, she bounced back with victory in the sprint in Cogne (Italy) last weekend. It was her first World Cup win since 2021.
As for the American, he’s still not sure he’ll be taking part in the Nordic skiing festival. His season is not going as hoped. Although he raced a few days ago in Borås (Sweden) at the national championships, it was to convince his staff to select him. His disqualification following a collision in the sprint with Adam Persson didn’t help. ” There’s still a glimmer of hope,” he nevertheless told Expressen. This winter, he only took part in the stages of Ruka (Finland), Lillehammer (Norway), Davos (Switzerland) and Les Rousses (Jura). His fate will be decided on February 16.
During the World Championships, whatever happens, Kevin Bolger will be leaving his flat, as will Maja Dahlqvist, who will be staying with her team-mates. It’s their parents who will be moving in. Even if I’m not selected, I don’t want to stay there,” said the North American. I’ll have to find a friend to stay with. But I’ll be there for Maja during the world championships. He’ll be doing everything he can to help his lover win a gold medal.
