Vanessa Voigt: Team-mates make cardboard medal for German star after podium heartache
German athlete Vanessa Voigt was left heartbroken after missing out on a bronze medal by just 1.3 seconds in the individual biathlon. Norway’s Marte Olsbu Roeiseland — who now has three medals at the Games — edged ahead of her in the event, which was won by Voigt's compatriot Denise Herrmann. Ad/> However, after seeing their team-mate go so close to a place on the podium, fellow biathletes Benedikt Doll and Philipp Nawrath thought their friend deserved some recognition.
