Dorothea Wierer has made a surprisingly clear statement about a possible end to her career. The 33-year-old will no longer compete in the current season and will skip the remaining World Cups.

It is uncertain whether the Italian will continue until the 2026 Olympics, which will be held in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo. The South Tyrolean wrote on Instagram: “It was hard. But it’s not goodbye” She also added a wink emoji.
