Winter Olympics 2022 - Justine Braisaz-Bouche wins first major title, beats Norwegians to biathlon mass start gold
French biathlete Justine Braisaz-Bouche coped best with windy conditions to deny Norway another gold in the 12.5km mass start at the Winter Olympics in Beijing. The 25-year-old picked up the first major title of her career thanks to missing just one shot from her last 10 in the standing position and had time to pick up le Tricolore on the home straight to win by 15.3 seconds over Tiril Eckhoff, with Marte Olsbu Roeiseland taking a fifth medal of the Games by winning bronze.
