French Open 2023: Why are so many Norwegians at the top of sport? Casper Ruud explains…

Casper Ruud has revealed that one of the keys to recent Norwegian success in the sporting world is a big training centre in the country where all their athletes come together to work out. Norwegian sport is booming at the elite level with Ruud among a talented pool alongside the likes of footballers Erling Haaland and Ada Hegerberg, athletes Jakob Ingebrigtsen and Karsten Warholm, and golfer Viktor Hovland — while Scandinavian sport as a whole has also seen a big surge outside the usual calling of winter sports.

Alison Dos Santos Dethrones Karston Warholm, Jake Wightman Shocks Jakob Ingebrigtsen

Alison Dos Santos ended Karsten Warholm's reign as hurdles king at the world championships on Tuesday while Britain's Jake Wightman won his country's first 1500m gold in 39 years on a day of upsets. Warholm may have been behind one of the most iconic moments in Olympic history when he smashed the 29-year-old world record to win the 400m hurdles at the Tokyo Games in a time of 45.94 sec. But the 26-year-old came to Eugene on the back of a hamstring injury which ultimately put paid to his medal attempt here. Instead, Dos Santos ran the third fastest time of all time and a championship record of 46.29 sec to win gold ahead of Americans Rai Benjamin and Trevor Bassitt.
