Swedish cross-country skier Moa Ilar finished eighth in the Tour de Ski after a weak final climb to Alpe Cermis. She criticizes how much of the tour is decided on the demanding hill. Ebba Andersson was the top Swede in fourth place.
Johanna Hagström finished third in the classic sprint on the OS course in Val di Fiemme, bolstering her demand to compete in the OS sprint in a month. Having won the season's only previous classic sprint, she believes her performances qualify her for one of Sweden's four spots. Meanwhile, Finnish skier Jasmi Joensuu claimed her first World Cup victory.
