Bendika and Volfa ski into the top twenty, Buliņa hits all targets and also qualifies for the chase

Latvia's Baiba Bendika and Estere Volfa performed strongly in the biathlon, finishing 15th and 16th respectively, while Sanita Buliņa qualified for the chase after hitting all targets but struggled in the final lap.

In a recent biathlon competition, Norwegian athlete Maren Kirkeide emerged victorious, securing the Olympic champion title with a time of 3.8 seconds ahead of France's Osane Michelon, both of whom shot perfectly. Portugal’s Lu Janmono claimed the bronze medal with the fastest skiing time on the course. Latvian skier Baiba Bendika recorded the second-best skiing time, managing to close five targets in the first shooting stage but faltered with two mistakes in the second, which included a penalty lap that ultimately cost her valuable time and placed her 15th, 1 minute and 22.7 seconds behind the leader.
