The surprising end to the career of biathlon hopeful (24) is a mystery. Martin Bourgeois République was once considered a huge talent who had what it takes to become a future biathlon star.

The Frenchman has now announced that he will end his career at the age of 24. He will compete in one last race and then it will be over. In addition to him, Chloé Bened also ended her career at a young age. The 24-year-old was mainly used in the second-class IBU Cup. He never competed in a World Cup race.
