Frenchwoman Justine Braisaz-Bouchet won the sprint at Soldier Hollow. The Saisies biathlete won this Friday in the United States, signing her fifth World Cup success of the season.

His compatriot Lou Jeanmonnot took third place in the race, 19 seconds behind. Julia Simon missed three targets and only finished seventh at 1 minute and 15 seconds, which risks compromising her chances for the continuation this Sunday. The Italian Lisa Vittozzi, also in the battle for the big crystal globe, finished fourth (+29″).
