German biathlon star Laura Dahlmeier claims Olympic double

From our online archive

PYEONGCHANG: Germany's Laura Dahlmeier obliterated the opposition to claim her second gold medal of the Olympics in the biathlon pursuit on Monday, two days after winning the sprint.

The 24-year-old finished well ahead of Slovakia's Anastasiya Kuzmina, who narrowly beat France's Anais Bescond for the silver in a blustery Pyeongchang.

Dahlmeier, who won five gold medals at last year's world championship, can bring her Olympic haul to three golds if she triumphs in the mass start on Saturday.
